Recipe by Better Nature
30 hours
Serves:
3
ingredients
- 1 block of Better Nature Organic Tempeh, cut into slices
- 3-4 tablespoons harissa paste (adjust to taste)
- 3 pieces of pita bread
- 3 Tbsp hummus
Salad Topper:
- Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
- 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
- 1 sweetcorn (cooked)
- 1 red chilli
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt and pepper to taste
instructions
Marinating the Organic Tempeh:
- In a bowl, add the harissa paste with a salt and pepper to create the marinade.
- Gently toss the tempeh slices in the harissa marinade, ensuring they are well coated.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and let the tempeh marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. For a more intense flavor, you can marinate it for up to 2 hours.
Preparing the Salad Topper:
- In a separate bowl, combine the chopped coriander, chilli, pomegranate seeds, barbecued sweetcorn with a the juice of one lime.
- Toss the ingredients gently to mix. Season with a bit of salt and pepper if desired.
Cooking the Tempeh:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a bit of oil to the skillet to prevent sticking. Place the marinated tempeh slices in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Alternatively, you can preheat a barbecue, cooking the tempeh for 2 minutes either side to achieve a charred flavour.
Assembling the Pitas:
- Spread a generous layer of hummus on one side of each pita.
- Place a few slices of the cooked harissa-marinated tempeh on top of the hummus layer. Spoon the salad topper mixture on top of the tempeh in each pita.
- You can drizzle a bit more lime juice or olive oil over the top for added flavor, if desired.
