Welcome to Recipe #1 of How to Cook Tempeh. This is a very simple take on a traditional Mediterranean dish that I love, falafel, using Chickpea Tempeh rather than chickpeas.
Being a fermented food, tempeh, is easily digested and a good source of gut loving probiotics. The addition of the Mint Yogurt makes it absolutely mouth watering and a super healthy dish that can be loved by all, children included.
