Stir-Fried Broccoli and Tempeh

This recipe hardly seems worth recording for its own sake, but perhaps for its representativeness, it'll do quite nicely.  There are very few things more delicious than fried tempeh and fried broccoli, individually, and here they are together!  I've been making a lot of dishes like this--simple, cheap, but oh so good.

Stir-Fried Broccoli and Tempeh over Brown and White Rice

Ingredients

vegetable oil

2-3 cloves garlic, minced

2 green onions, chopped

1 large block tempeh (10 oz or so), in small cubes

3 medium crowns broccoli, turned into bite-sized pieces

tamari

rooster chili paste

water as needed

sesame oil

sesame seeds
fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

1. Steam broccoli.
2. Heat vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet.  Saute garlic for several minutes before adding green onions and tempeh.  Saute a few more minutes.  When tempeh starts to brown, add broccoli and saute still a few more minutes.  Just before turning off heat, add a splash each of tamari and chili paste.  You may want to add some water as well to avoid burning/sticking/dryness.
3. Turn off heat and add just a tiny bit of sesame oil.  Sprinkle sesame seeds over it all, and stir in cilantro.  Serve hot over rice or rice noodles.  Serves about 4.
