Teriyaki Tempeh Balls

Mashed tofu in a large bowl. Add in chopped tempeh, broccoli stems, carrots and cashew nuts.

Season with salt and pepper then gradually add in the corn flour. Mix everything together until well combined.

Take a heaping tablespoon of tofu and place it on your palm. Roll it into a ball and continue until the rest of the ingredients finishes.

Heat a large pan with oil. Once the oil is heated, fry the balls until they turn golden brown. Remove the balls and transfer to a plate with paper towels.

In the same pan, heat pan with about ½ tbsp of oil.

Sauté ginger until fragrant then add in the rest of the sauce ingredients.

Once sugar has melted, add in the tempeh balls. Quickly toss to coat the tofu balls with sauce and let the mixture simmer until it starts to thicken. Once the sauce is thickened, it is ready to serve.

Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and chopped scallion with a bowl of steamed brown rice.
