A great sausage crumble for making patties or as a layer in lasagne! Smokey and flavorful!
Ingredients:
1 (10 ounce) package tempeh, broken into 4-5 pieces
marinade
1/2 cup tamari
1 inch gingerroot, sliced
1 black cardamom pod, crushed
3 smoked tea bags (either lapsang souchong or russian caravan)
1 -2 cup fresh water
mixed spice
1/2 tablespoon fennel
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorn
2 teaspoons oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground sage
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, small diced
salt
Directions:
1. Combine the marinade ingredients in a pot with the tempeh, using just enough water to cover.
2. Bring this to a boil, lower to a simmer. Simmer for 30 minutes, removing the teabags after 4 minutes.
3. In a dry pot toast the fennel and peppercorns, then grind them. In a medium sized bowl combine with the other herbs and garlic.
4. Drain the tempeh, and when cool enough to handle crumble and mix gently with the spices.
5. In a medium sized cast-iron skillet heat the olive oil and cook the onions until tender.
6. Add the tempeh mixture and cook until browned and crispy at the edges.
