1

Prepare the Tempeh

Cut the tempeh into bite-sized cubes. In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, rice vinegar, maple syrup, and grated ginger. Add the tempeh cubes to the bowl and marinate for at least 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to seep in.

2

Cook the Tempeh

Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a drizzle of oil. Once the pan is hot, add the marinated tempeh cubes, reserving the excess marinade. Cook the tempeh for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crisp. Pour the reserved marinade over the tempeh and cook for an additional minute, allowing it to thicken slightly.

3

Prepare the Base

In a serving bowl, add a bed of cooked rice or quinoa. Arrange a variety of colorful vegetables such as sliced cucumber, shredded carrots, sliced radishes, and diced avocado on top of the rice.

4

Add the Tempeh and Dressing

Place the cooked tempeh cubes on the bed of vegetables. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Drizzle the dressing over the poke bowl to add a burst of tangy flavor.

5

Garnish and Serve

Sprinkle your poke bowl masterpiece with sesame seeds, chopped green onions, and a handful of crispy seaweed flakes for an extra touch of deliciousness. Grab your chopsticks and dive into the flavorsome world of vegetarian poke goodness!
