Hello friends in Vegan community, today I will share a new recipe and I'm sure many have never tried to make this recipe, this is the first time for me to make stir-fried tempeh with turmeric leaves. The idea for this dish came from my friend, she said she once cooked turmeric leaves by stir-frying. I'm curious about how the turmeric leaves taste when sautéed, because so far I've only used turmeric leaves as an additional ingredient for cooking curry.
Actually, I was hesitant to try this menu, because I know that turmeric leaves have a tough leaf texture and leaf bones. We know that turmeric leaves contain a lot of fiber and are difficult to chew. I've been imagining how this fibrous turmeric leaf will taste, so I added tempeh to the turmeric leaf stir-fry.
But I was curious about the taste, I thought there's no harm in trying to make this menu, there are also lots of turmeric leaves available in the garden. I will take 10 turmeric leaves to make this recipe, I will choose young turmeric leaves.
Preparation
Before being processed into food, I will prepare the turmeric leaves. First, separate the leaves from the leaf bone which is in the middle of the turmeric leaf.
After that, cut the turmeric leaves crosswise, the bones of the leaves removed. The distinctive aroma of turmeric leaves immediately wafted when I cut the turmeric leaves.
Ingredients used
The ingredients that I use to make stir-fried tempeh with turmeric leaves are:
8 pieces of tempeh
10 pieces of chopped turmeric leaves
100 grams of green chilies
3 pieces of cayenne pepper / according to taste
5 pieces of red onion
5 pieces of garlic
1 tomato
300 mL of water
1 tablespoon of salt
1 teaspoon of sugar
1 Pack of pepper Powder / according to taste
