Guest guest Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 Hi there again Pat, I have a few recipes using tempeh. As I have holidays from work (I return on Thursday 2nd January) I have the time to do a bit of typing so it's no trouble to send you a selection. Until I know which Madhur Jaffrey books you have I won't send you any of her recipes - no point doubling up. I'm not too sure if recipes are meant to be posted in a particular format. If I'm breaking every rule in the book I apologise in advance. I'm not much of a computer person so if someone could guide me GENTLY through any 'format' rules for posting I'd be relieved. Apart from a few personal comments I will type the recipes exactly as they are written in the books - if you have any problems with terminology (ingredients, measurements etc) just ask and I'll try to help out. Source - Family Circle Asian Vegetarian Recipes (published Murdoch Books) [first 3 recipes are all from this book] THAI TEMPEH (serves 4) 2 stems lemon grass, white part only, finely chopped 2 fresh kaffir lime leaves, shredded (note from Marie - I always have to use dried lime leaves as I can't get fresh) 2 small red chillies, seeded and finely chopped 3 cloves garlic, crushed 2 teaspoons sesame oil 125 ml lime juice 2 teaspoons shaved palm sugar 125 ml soy sauce 600 grams tempeh cut into 5 mm slices 80 ml peanut oil 1 tablespoon shaved palm sugar (extra) 100 g snow pea sprouts finely shredded fresh kaffir lime leaves (extra) - (me again - I use coriander as the garnish instead of the leaves) 1) Place the lemon grass, lime leaves, chilli, garlic, sesame oil, lime juice, sugar & soy sauce in a non-metallic bowl and mix together well. Add the tempeh and stir. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate overnight in the refrigerator, stirring occasionally. Drain and reserve the marinade. 2) Heat half the peanut oil in a frying pan. Add the tempeh and cook over a high heat in batches, turning once, for 5 minutes or until crispy. Add more of the oil when necessary. Drain on paper towels. 3) Place the reserved marinade and the extra sugar in a saucepan and stir over a medium heat. Bring to the boil and cook for 3-4 minutes or until syrupy. 4) Divide 1/3 of the tempeh among the 4 serving plates and top with 1/2 the snow pea sprouts. Add another layer of tempeh and the remaining sprouts then top with the remaining layer of tempeh. Drizzle the marinade syrup over the top then sprinkle with extra lime leaves (see my note above). Serve with Asian greens if desired.

Drain and serve. 6) to serve, pile the noodles on plates, spoon on the stir-fry and garnish with chopped fresh coriander. Well Pat, I have tried to give you a bit of variation with these recipes. I hope you find them useful. I have about another 15-20 ( a few more if you count the Dutch ones but I'm a bit too lazy to do any translating today!!). I'll wait until I hear from you if this is the type of thing you are after. Perhaps you could let me know what sorts of cuisine you like best. I'm sure there will be a few typing mistakes but hopefully they won't affect the recipes (things like leaving a key ingredient out of the list or typing tablespoon instead of teaspoon!!) Have a great New Year. This place goes absolutely crazy at midnight with millions of Euros going up in smoke in the form of fireworks. Every street corner is always coated in red firework paper for the first 2-3 weeks of January and the noise which erupts at midnight is indescribably as literally millions of Dutch set their fireworks going. It goes on with let up until about 4 o'clock in the morning. It is now only about 9:30 in the morning of 31/12 but there are already fireworks going off in the street but it is NOTHING compared to the big bang which will happen at midnight. Cheers for now, Regards, Marie -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Sant & Brown <santbrown Aan: Datum: maandag 30 december 2002 21:56 Onderwerp: Re: HAPPY NEW YEAR Hi Marie! Good to hear from you again! Your generosity over your recipes and/or links to them is overwhelming. I should feel guilty for asking, but I'm not going to be ;=) What oh what do you have in the way of recipes for *tempeh*? I have been working with Charmaine Solomon's and with Madhur Jaffrey's books - that gives me something like four. Two Thai and a couple of Indonesian or Indonesian-inflected recipes. Anything innovative you can add to that? I just kinda thought that with tempeh being more Indonesian than anything else and the Netherlands having those links you might have some ideas????

I'll be in touch later - after I've selected which one to try first ;=) - Btw, we eat more asian food than anything else - we eat Italian style (can toss so many nice things through noodles) when we're in a hurry - But you have some 'European' style recipes here which look really tempting, such as the tempeh stroganoff.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 Those recipes are great. Thank you for typing them out for all of us.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 Hello once again Pat, Boy, this could become habit forming!!!! It was a real pleasure to get the recipes for you and I will have a look through the list again soon. As you have no doubt gathered, my database does not contain the actual recipes but only references to them. As I have to type out the recipes I thought it would be more sensible to check exactly what sots of things you were after. Sending recipes that are of no interest to you would be rather pointless - a waste of typing time and also your reading time. The way the database is organised is with columns for the name of the book/author/page number/recipe name/category (ie main meal, soup etc)/ethnic origin (if applicable)/a column with any number of asterisks from zero to 5 to indicate to myself how keen I am to try the recipe out myself)/whether it is suitable for picnics/and 'comments' (this could be anything from comments about how we enjoyed recipes I have used, suggestions that it may be a nice dish to serve to a particular guest, the name of a friend who gave me the recipe and so on. When I have huge amounts of time at my disposal I would also like to add another couple of columns - one to indicate whether recipes are vegan and another to list key ingredients. For instance, the only way I could search for recipes for you was to type 'tempeh' into the search function and see what came up. If there happens to be a tempeh recipe in the list but without the word 'tempeh' in the recipe title I can't locate it. My larger database contains references to recipe books and the smaller one to cuttings I have collected over many years. They are all arranged in 5 (over)full arch files in sections with the same categories as listed in the large data base. The other thing is that I have only databased the recipes which sound interesting to me so there are quite possibly other recipes for tempeh in my books that aren't on the database. It is now just before 10:00 pm on New Year's Eve and we have our friends Cristina and John coming around at about 11:30 to see the new year in with us. Cristina comes from Romania and wants to stay home until 11:00 pm so that she can ring her mum in Bucharest to wish her happy new year (Romania is 1 hour ahead of Holland) but they will come here after she has spoken to her mum. The mad fireworks extravaganza has already begun. In fact, it started building up a couple of weeks ago. Officially fireworks can't even be sold here until 28/12 but the restrictions aren't as strong in Belgium so people go there to buy huge quantities of fireworks . I honestly don't see the point of setting fire to so much money each year. The LEGALLY bought ones are over 20 million Euros (just in Holland with a population of between 15-16 milion people) and the authorities estimate that the legally bought ones represent only about 1/4 of all fireworks with the rest coming in from Belgium and other countries or being home made. I had to go shopping today and it was a game of 'avoid the crackers' - teenage lads think it is extremely amusing to throw crackers direactly at or just in front of pedestrians, cars and cyclists. I quite enjoy watching the display at midnight as everyone goes wild with the fireworks but the noise, the smell, the danger and the cost are all very negative sides of the whole thing, not to mention the horrible piles of soggy red paper which hang around on street corners for weeks afterwards. At midnight the whole country erupts in a huge firework display which goes on unabated until about 5:00am. As I said, spectacular but incredibly wasteful - at least it's not my money!! As I happen to have a bit of spare time before the festivities begin I might just as well use it profitably and write the list of tempeh recipes I haven't yet sent to you. You can decide at your leisure which ones sound interesting to you. (Don't hesitate one moment if you want them all. I can type them in batches but after I return to work on Thursday my sessions at the computer will be slightly shorter!!) I won't put anything from Madhur Jaffrey on the list until I know which of her books you have access to. I'll list the book and author first, then the name of the recipe 1) Gaia's Kitchen by Julia Ponsonby Colourful stir-fry with tempeh 2) Vegetarian Times January 2000 Tempeh 'sausage' patties 3) Vegetarian Times April 2000 Spinach salad with crisped tempeh 4) Vegetarian Times May 2000 Tempeh with zucchini, peas and tomatoes 5) Vehetarian Times May 2000 Spicy tempeh and corn salsa 6) Vegetarian Times July 2000 Tempeh-walnut burgers 7) Vegetarian Times September 2000 Sloppy Joes (from a Naysoya advertisement) 8) Vegetarian Times April 2001 Jamaican jerk tempeh 9) Vegetarian Times April 2001 Tempeh bouillabaisse 10) Vegetarian Times April 2001 Tempeh bolognaise 11) The No Cholesterol (No Kidding) Cookbook by Mary Carroll with Hal Straus California tempeh spread 12) The Yoga Cookbook - The Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centres Tempeh stew 13) The Yoga Cookbook - The Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centres Tempeh with sesame seeds 14) American Wholefoods Cuisine by Nikki & David Goldbeck Tempeh burgers 15) American Wholefoods Cuisine by Nikki & David Goldbeck Hot open-faced tempeh sandwich 16) American Wholefoods Cuisine by Nikki & David Goldbeck Tempeh parmesan 17) American Wholefoods Cuisine by Nikki & David Goldbeck Tempeh kebabs with pineapple BBQ sauce 18) American Wholefoods Cuisine by Nikki & David Goldbeck Tempeh sandwich salad 19) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Avocado club with tempeh strips 20) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Marinades for tempeh - hot mustard 21) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Marinades for tempeh - sesame-ginger 22) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Marinades for tempeh - Thai coconut 23) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Marinades for tempeh - hoisin 24) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Tempeh in coconut sauce 25) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Tempeh simmered in broth 26) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Tempeh strips in a smoky molasses marinade 27) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Baked tempeh with mustard-honey marinade 28) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Barbecued tempeh 29) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Fried tempeh 30) Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison Marinated and fried tempeh Indonesian style As you can see, Vegetarian Times is a good source of tempeh recipes but I no longer receive the magazine> It was always a nightmare trying to renew my subscriptiion from Holland so I gave up trying. Well, that's it for now. I still have an hour to find my earplugs!!!!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2003 Report Share Posted January 2, 2003 Hi again, Marie. Again I am in your debt - thank you so much. Actually, what I'd like to do is to try the recipes you have already sent me before I ask for more ;=) And since we don't eat tempeh every day, that might take a little while. I will however start getting _Vegetarian Times_ on a regular basis - just picked up the January one over the hols, but haven't had time to have a look yet - such a backlog of things to do!!! At the risk of sounding like a total spoilsport I'll say that I absolutely *hate* fireworks - they always seem to be an assault. They make pretty lights in the sky, of course - but some people are made nervous by things that go boom in the night. I am one of them ;=) As for the cost, let's not even go there. How many people would those fireworks have fed! When they fireworks started here in downtown London, we had one frightened cat, and two frightened dogs, and one trying to be nonchalent animal guardian plus a 'oh no, what's that damned row' husband ;=) Of course, a New Year's celebratory drink settled the human nerves just fine - cookies all round for the pets. I'll write again later about the cookbooks I do and don't have available - we moved here from Oz just about three and a half years ago and we sacrificed loads of books. If my recipes weren't keyed into my computer - and some favourites, but few, were - then they didn't make it. I have bought cookbooks since, of course. Thanks again. Hey, am I the only person around on this list who is interested in tempeh? I don't think of it as a meat substitute any more than beancurd/tofu is - just a useful and versatile food. best, pat -- PAT - AND CASEY & MADE - AND MISHA THE CAT WHO LOVES BEAGLES (In London, Ontario, Canada) OUR EMAIL LIST: townhounds- PERSONAL EMAIL: SANTBROWN PERSONAL WEBPAGE: http://www.angelfire.com/art/pendragon/ ---------- " I don't do pawprints.

I don't have any great recipes for it though: I just marinate it in tamari and gingerroot, then saute it. Then eat it. Generally, as the 'meat' of a meal - in other words, a meal might be baked potatoes, spinach, tempeh, salad, for example.

Then > eat it. > That's been about my use of it - but then I dump it in some kind of curried veg or add stir fried veg Thai style, served with rice. But I'm looking for more recipes all the time - whether for tempeh, tofu, beans, lentils, anything like that, because our tastes are always changing. There just aren't enough meals in a year to try everything :=( Btw, I note that you declared yourself, sometime yesterday maybe, as not really being a vegetarian. My two favourite home vegetarian cooks are non-vegetarian. One used a little meat only (he was careful with meat because he found it expensive - this was back in student days, some years before Noah's flood), but would leave it out for vegetarians. The other is a rabid meatlover, but cooks the most delicious vegetarian stews - which she invents on the spot, never twice the same. I myself cooked vegetarian long before I was one, because we had so many vegetarian friends ;=) best, pat -- PAT - AND CASEY & MADE - AND MISHA THE CAT WHO LOVES BEAGLES (In London, Ontario, Canada) OUR EMAIL LIST: townhounds- PERSONAL EMAIL: SANTBROWN PERSONAL WEBPAGE: http://www.angelfire.com/art/pendragon/ ---------- " I don't do pawprints.

I'm like this, I cook and eat a little meat, usually we have two 'meat' meals a week, and the rest vegetarian meals. I probably wouldn't if I weren't married to a meat-eater. He's British too. He's come a long way (in regards to what he'll eat) during the five years that we've been married, and changed a lot...progress is being made. We both have chronic illnesses and my life at the moment is sort of difficult: so adding an additional complication to my life isn't in the cards at present. Maybe in the future.

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2003 Report Share Posted January 3, 2003 Your eating regimen sounds sensible and healthy to me - why worry! We don't eat meat because we don't like it - not even the smell of it (which causes problems) and since the discovery that we don't, we have found good reasons, which existed all along of course, not to eat it: health, ethics, ecology, you name it. Post-facto rationalization, I suspect. (Or maybe we decided we didn't like it because . . . who knows. Funny that both my husband and I went off it at around the same time.) So I figure that we are in no position to criticize someone else's eating habits - or ethics or whatever - or to preach - although it is tempting sometimes. I'm sorry you have health problems - and sorrier that this is a difficult time for you. I hope things straighten out soonest. It's good talking to you ;=) Thanks for your support. best, pat - in ontario -- PAT - AND CASEY & MADE - AND MISHA THE CAT WHO LOVES BEAGLES (In London, Ontario, Canada) OUR EMAIL LIST: townhounds- (townhounds/) PERSONAL EMAIL: SANTBROWN PERSONAL WEBPAGE: http://www.angelfire.com/art/pendragon/ ---------- " I don't do pawprints.
