ROAST

SAUCE

Bring the water and soy sauce to the boil in a small pan, place the tempeh (defrosted if frozen) in it, lower heat, cover pan and simmer for 10 minutes; turn the tempeh over and simmer for a further 10 minutes. Drain.

Chop the onion. Saute in the oil in a saucepan 3-4 minutes until softened. Remove from heat. Mash the tempeh into the pan, then add the drained corn, breadcrumbs, milk, thyme and seasoning; mix well.

Turn into an oiled oven dish and bake at 350F (180 C)/Gas Mark 4 for about half an hour.

To make sauce, chop the mushrooms and saute them in the oil in a small pan until tender. Stir in the water, tahini, and soy sauce; bring to the boil, stirring, then lower heat and simmer for a couple of minutes. Serve the roast with the sauce poured over it, accompanied by seasonal vegetables.
