INSTRUCTIONS

1. Mix all ingredients but the seitan with a fork and beat until well integrated. Add water for it to be a bit more liquid – the idea is to get the texture of a salad dressing. Play around with the sauce ingredients: you can add a bit of peanut butter, ginger,etc. – use your imagination! This is just a base…

2. Grill the tempeh on both sides (putting a little bit of oil on the grill) for about 5 minutes each side.

3. Serve with the sauce on top and a nice side salad.
