Description
1
Start by finely chopping the shallots, garlic, red chili peppers, and tomato. This will ensure that the flavors are well-distributed throughout the dish.
2
Heat a suitable amount of cooking oil in a wok or frying pan over medium heat. Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the ingredients for the best aroma and flavor.
3
Once the oil is heated, add the chopped shallots and garlic to the pan. Sauté them until they become fragrant and slightly golden, which usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
4
Season the sautéed mixture with salt, granulated sugar, and your preferred seasoning. Then add the chopped red chili peppers, and sauté for an additional minute to blend the flavors.
5
Next, introduce the sliced tempeh into the pan, stirring it in gently for about 2 minutes to allow it to absorb the flavors and heat through.
6
Add the long green beans to the mix and sauté until they are slightly wilted but still crisp, approximately 2-3 minutes, depending on your preference for doneness.
7
Finally, stir in the soy sauce and the chopped tomato. Mix everything together and let it cook for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully.
