Instructions

  1. 1. Cut the tempeh into slices 1 cm thick. Important: Don't rinse it, just pat it dry to avoid germs.
  2. 2. Finely chop the 2 cloves of garlic. Make sure the pieces are small so they don't burn.
  3. 3. Also finely chop the ginger. This distributes the flavour evenly in the marinade.
  4. 4. Place the tempeh slices in a bowl. Lay them flat next to each other so they have space.
  5. 5. Pour 2 tablespoons of soy sauce over the tempeh. Liquid penetrates better than dry powder.
  6. 6. Add 1 tablespoon of rapeseed oil. The fat will create a nice browning in the air fryer later.
  7. 7. Sprinkle the finely chopped garlic, ginger, chilli flakes and sugar over the top.
  8. 8. Gently turn the slices until they are marinated all over. Make sure each side is covered.
  9. 9. Preheat the air fryer to 180 °C. This is the medium setting for a crispy result.
  10. 10. Place the tempeh slices in the air fryer basket. Make sure they don't touch.
  11. 11. Cook the tempeh for 10 minutes at 180 °C, until the edges are golden brown.
  12. 12. Shake the basket vigorously to turn the slices. This makes all sides crispy evenly.
  13. 13. Cook the tempeh for another 10 minutes at 180 °C. The surface should now be golden brown and firm.
  14. 14. Mix the lime juice, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, chilli and sugar in a small bowl.
  15. 15. Remove the tempeh and let it rest for 2 minutes. This allows the heat to distribute evenly.
  16. 16. Arrange the tempeh on a plate. It's ready when the edges crackle when crispy.
