Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

8 ounces tempeh -- steamed

1 green pepper

1 sweet red pepper

1 medium onion

1 zucchini

2 apples or star fruit

For the Marinade:

1 1/2 cups apple juice

6 tablespoons cider vinegar

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons ginger root -- grated

4 cloves garlic -- minced

2 tablespoons cornstarch or arrowroot

 

Cook these tangy, colorful kebabs in the oven or on the grill. Try mixing

tempeh and frozen tofu to make these kebabs.

 

Cut the tempeh and vegetables into 3/4 " chunks. Cot the fruit into thick

slices. In a glass or stainless steel pan, spread everything out, one layer

thick.

 

Whip together the marinade ingredients. Microwave Method: In a glass bowl,

microwave the marinade on high for 6 minutes, stopping to whip every 2 minutes.

Stovetop Method: In a saucepan, heat the marinade over medium heat, stirring

constantly until it boils and starts to thicken. Reduce the heat and simmer for

2 to 3 minutes.

 

Pour the marinade over the vegetables and tempeh. Marinate in the refrigerator

for a few hours to overnight.

 

Preheat the grill or oven to 400F.

 

Arrange the tempeh and vegetables on skewers, then arrange on a pan or the

grill. Brush with the marinade and bake or grill for 15 to 20 minutes on each

side or until browned. Serve the kebabs on a bed of brown rice, noodles, or

millet. Heat the remaining sauce and pour over thhe top of the kebabs.

 

Sweet-Sour Tofu Kebabs: Use 1/2 lb. frozen tofu which has been thawed and

squeezed dry in place of the tempeh.
