Tempeh Fries with Horseradish or Wasabi-Dill Mayonnaise image

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
One 8-ounce package tempeh, any variety
Horseradish or Wasabi-Dill Mayonnaise
1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise
2 tablespoons rice milk
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish or 1 teaspoon wasabi, or to taste
2 to 3 teaspoons lemon or lime juice
1/4 cup minced fresh dill

Steps:

Heat the oil and soy sauce in a wide skillet. Add the tempeh, stirring quickly to coat. Sauté over medium-high heat, stirring gently and frequently, until golden and crisp, about 7 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine the mayonnaise, rice milk, and horseradish and lemon juice to taste in a small serving bowl and whisk until smooth. Stir in the dill.
When the fries are done, arrange them on a platter. Serve at once, passing around the sauce.
Menu Suggestions
This is a good addition to lighter Asian-style noodle dishes, such as Pineapple Coconut Noodles (page 114), Pad Thai (page 116), Singapore-Style Yellow Curry Rice Noodles with Tofu (page 118), Soba Noodles with Green Beans and Almonds (page 127), or Coconut-Curry Bean Thread Noodles (page 115).
Tempeh fries are also good for boosting the protein content of meals in which salad is the main event. Try these with Warm Potato and Black Bean Salad with Red Peppers and Artichokes (page 159), Gado Gado (page 160), or Hoison-Flavored Cold Asian Noodles with Crisp Vegetables (page 168).
