2. Make the Egg Mixture: In a bowl, beat the egg and season it with salt, mushroom seasoning, and pepper. Add the minced red onion and chopped green onion, stirring well to combine. Then, sprinkle in the rice flour and mix until the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.

3. Heat the Oil: In a frying pan, heat enough cooking oil over medium heat. You want the oil to be hot enough for frying but not smoking.

4. Fry the Tempeh: Dip each piece of the sliced tempeh into the egg mixture, ensuring that it is well-coated. Carefully place the coated tempeh into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides, approximately 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

5. Serve: Once cooked, serve the crispy tempeh with a side of your favorite dipping sauces, such as sambal or mayonnaise, for an extra burst of flavor.

Enjoy your Tempe Goreng Telur as a delightful snack or as an accompaniment to your main meals, and relish in the crispy texture and savory taste that makes this dish a true Indonesian classic!
