Smoky Tomato Borlotti Bean Stew with Sticky Miso Tempeh

This is an exclusive recipe from Sophie Macfie's cookbook '30 in 30' - 30g of protein, 30 minutes or less. Sophie is a food writer + content creator behind @sophsplantkitchen.

 

Beautiful borlotti beans soak up all that deep, jammy tomato flavour while the tempeh brings a sticky, umami-packed crunch to every bite. It's a plant-based protein POWERHOUSE of a recipe.

Feeds: 2
Takes: 25 minutes

Ingredients

For the smoky tomato borlotti

1 jar Queen Borlotti Beans - with their bean stock

Extra virgin olive oil, for frying

6 garlic cloves, minced or sliced

300g cherry tomatoes, halved

1 tbsp smoked paprika

15g fresh basil leaves

Sourdough or your grain of choice, to serve

For the sticky miso tempeh

200g tempeh

1 tbsp fresh minced ginger

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 tbsp tamari

2½ tbsp sweet white miso paste

1 tbsp maple syrup

Directions

1

In a medium saucepan, add a good glug of olive oil and gently heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring regularly, until you start to smell it - don't let it burn.

2

Add the cherry tomatoes, smoked paprika and a big pinch of salt. Cook on a low heat for 10–12 minutes, stirring every now and then, until the tomatoes melt into a sauce.

3

Add the borlotti beans with their bean stock and turn the heat right down while you make the tempeh.

4

Cut the tempeh into irregular small chunks or tear it with your hands. Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan on a medium-high heat and fry the tempeh with a pinch of salt for 5 minutes.

5

Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the ginger and garlic and fry for another 2 minutes. Mix the tamari, miso and maple syrup in a small bowl, pour into the pan and stir until just combined. Remove from the heat.

6

Tear the basil and stir through the beans. Season to taste, then serve into bowls with the tempeh on top. Enjoy with sourdough or your grain of choice.
