Ingredients

• 300 grams Tempeh
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.25 teaspoon White pepper
• 120 milliliters Low sodium vegetable broth
• 100 grams All-purpose flour
• 50 grams Rice flour
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
• 120 milliliters Water
• 500 milliliters Vegetable oil (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the tempeh into thin rectangles approximately 2 inches long and 1/4 inch thick.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, prepare the marinade by combining garlic powder, ground coriander, turmeric powder, white pepper, and low sodium vegetable broth.

Step 3

Add the tempeh slices to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the batter.

Step 4

In another bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, rice flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. Gradually add water while stirring until you form a smooth, lump-free batter.

Step 5

Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat to 350°F (175°C). To test, drop a small amount of batter into the oil – it should sizzle and float to the surface.

Step 6

Dip each marinated tempeh slice into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated, and gently place it into the hot oil.

Step 7

Fry the tempeh slices in small batches for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

Remove the fried tempeh from the oil and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 9

Serve the Low Sodium Tempe Goreng Tepung immediately as a snack or side dish with your favorite dipping sauce or fresh vegetables.
