½cupHomemade Teriyaki Sauce
;see recipe
½poundsTempeh
Fresh ground pepper
1tablespoonToasted sesame oil
3cupsCooked brown basmati rice
For garnish:
Green onions
Almond slices

Directions

Preparation: If using dried shitakes, soak in water to refresh. Cut tempeh into thin slices. Cut onion in thin slivers. Mince garlic.

Remove strings from snow peas, if necessary. Remove stems from shitkes, and slice mushrooms thinly.

Heat 2 TB canola oil in saucepan or wok, gradually raising heat to medium. Fry tempeh slices in batches, until one side becomes golden; turn and fry other side until golden. Remove and drain on paper towel.

Add 1 TB canola oil and sesame oil to pan; raise heat to medium-hot.

Add snow peas,mushrooms, onions, and garlic; saute ONLY until onions are translucent, not brown, and snow peas are bright green. Then add drained tempeh. While stirring and tossing, add the teriyaki sauce; be careful to turn the heat down, as the sauce will sizzle 'dramatically' according to the author. Season with pepper.

Serve over brown rice, garnishing with slivered green onions and almonds if desired.

Serves 4.
