Instructions
-
Prepare the Tempeh: Begin by cutting the tempeh into pieces according to your preference—these can be slices, cubes, or any shape you fancy. Heat oil in a frying pan and fry the tempeh pieces until they turn golden brown and crispy. This will enhance their texture and flavor, making for a delicious base for your dish.

-
Clean the Shrimp: While the tempeh is frying, clean the shrimp by removing the heads and tails. Rinse them thoroughly under cold water. To eliminate any fishy smell, marinate the shrimp in lime juice for a few minutes, then rinse again.
-
Sauté Garlic and Chili: Thinly slice the garlic and small chili peppers. In the same pan with residual oil from frying the tempeh, add the sliced garlic and chili. Sauté them over medium heat until they become fragrant and are cooked through, but not fully browned.
-
Combine Ingredients: Once the garlic and chili are ready, add the fried tempeh and marinated shrimp to the pan. Season generously with salt and pepper according to your taste. Stir-fry all the ingredients together, ensuring the tempeh and shrimp are well-coated with the garlic and chili mixture.
-
Serve: Once everything is cooked through and the flavors have melded beautifully, remove from heat. Serve hot as a main dish alongside steamed rice or as a delectable side dish.
