this dinner rocked my world (and nourished my belly, perfect for a night out on the town seeing new orleans imports in berlin)

green rice is my response to an excess of rocket bought at the turkish markets the day before: boil up rice (this is brown and wild rice) and add stock powder and chopped up rocket about half way through. easy and full of goodness.

the tempeh was FRESH from the asian grocer down the road (in neukolln, on karl-marx strasse i think). soaked in a bit of tamari, apple vinegar and sesame oil for a while, then fried in oil till golden.

the mushroom sauce is my standard vegan gravy: fry up a few big handfuls of brown mushrooms, sliced. in a margarine/oil mix, till soft and juicy and tasty. add a few spoons of flour (this time was corn flour, gluten free) and stir through so all the mushrooms are covered. add soy milk and keep over a low heat, adding more until it is thick to a good gravy like consistency. season with tamari and tabasco and it’s all ready to go.
