2. Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, crack the large egg and whisk it until the yolk and white are fully combined.

3. Set Up the Breading Stations: Place the crispy seasoning flour in one bowl and the breadcrumbs in another. This setup will streamline the coating process.

4. Coat the Tempeh: Take each piece of tempeh and first dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated. Next, transfer it to the crispy seasoning flour, allowing the excess to fall off. Return the tempeh back to the egg mixture, and finally coat it in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure the coating sticks well. Repeat this process until all pieces of tempeh are coated.

5. Frying: Heat oil in a frying pan over low heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the coated tempeh pieces. Fry them slowly, turning occasionally, until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

6. Drain and Serve: Once crispy, remove the tempeh from the oil and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Serve the Tempe Crispy hot, paired with your favorite sambal or sweet sauce for dipping.
