Notes

Tempeh can sometimes have a little bit of a bitter taste. If you are using a block of tempeh, you can place in a pan of boiling water and simmer for 15 minutes, to reduce the bitterness. If you are using tempeh mince, you may need to add a little bit of maple syrup to the dish, to combat the bitter taste.
