Sauteed Tempeh Cutlets

• One 8-ounce package tempeh
• 1 tablespoon light olive or peanut oil
• 2 tablespoons natural soy sauce
• Ground coriander, optional

1. Slice the tempeh in half horizontally, then cut into rectangular pieces approximately 1 1/2 by 2 inches.
2. Heat the oil and soy sauce slowly in a wide skillet.
3. Add the tempeh and saute over medium heat until golden brown and crisp on both sides, about 10 minutes.
4. Sprinkle with the optional coriander (a traditional seasoning for tempeh) and serve.
5. Tempeh is a soy food with Indonesian roots.
6. It hasnt gained as much in popularity (or at least in notoriety) as tofu has, perhaps due to an even more offbeat character.
7. Nutritious and chewy, tempeh has a distinct, somewhat fermented flavor.
8. Available in 8-ounce packages, tempeh is available in soy-only or soy-and-grain combinations.
9. Tempeh may not be for everyone, but its worth a try.
10. Youll find it in natural foods stores and in well-stocked supermarkets, shelved near tofu and other soy products in the produce section.
