Tempeh Bacon

Easy recipe for tasty bacon.

Ingredients

1 pack (240 gram) tempeh (sliced into thin strips ¼ inch thick) (my favorite is Noble bean's) 4 tbsp cooking oil 4 tbsp vegetable stock 4 tbsp maple syrup Salt and pepper to taste.

Instructions

1. Heat up a cast iron pan or heavy sauce pan on medium heat and add oil.

2. Lay down your tempeh strips into the hot oil using tongs. It should start to sizzle instantly.

3. Add vegetable stock or water and cover with a lid. This allows the tempeh to steam quickly. Keep covered for a minute.

4. Remove cover and turn the tempeh pieces. Drizzle the maple syrup over the tempeh, and season with salt and pepper if desired. Allow tempeh to cook for another minute or until golden brown.

5. Serve with breakfast, in a raclette or in a sandwich or wrap.
