Ingredients

MARINADE

  • 4 tbsp umeboshi paste, see notes below
  • 2 tsp Chinese black vinegar
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp dark soy sauce
  • 2 tsp shaoxing wine
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled
  • ¼ tsp Chinese five-spice
  • ¼ tsp dried chilli flakes

SKEWERS

  • 300g block tempeh, see notes below
  • ½ pineapple, peeled and cored

TO SERVE

  • 2 spring onions, finely chopped
  • ½ a small bunch coriander, leaves picked
  • a pinch dried chilli flakes

Directions

  1. To make the marinade, put all of the ingredients into a food processor and whizz until smooth.
  2. To make the skewers, cut the tempeh into 12 x 3-4cm cubes and put in a large bowl. Pour over the marinade and cover. Being careful not to break up the tempeh, gently massage the cubes, making sure they are all covered in marinade. Put in the fridge to marinate for 30 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, take 6 bamboo skewers and soak them in water. Slice the pineapple into 12 x 3-4cm wedges.
  4. Remove the tempeh from the fridge and skewer, along with the pineapple, alternating as you go.
  5. Using a pastry brush, baste the tempeh with any left-over marinade and put on a BBQ or hot griddle pan.
  6. Grill, rotating every few minutes, until the pineapple is caramelised and the tempeh is nicely browned, brushing with more of the marinade as you go.
  7. Top with the spring onions, coriander and chilli flakes to serve.

Vegan Malva Pudding

Vegan Malva Pudding is a delightful plant-based version of the classic South African dessert. This rich and moist pudding, made with apricot jam and a luscious caramel sauce, offers the same comforting sweetness without any animal products. Perfectly baked to a golden brown, it’s an indulgent treat that can be enjoyed by everyone.

Ingredients

FOR THE MALVA PUDDING:

  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour (250g)
  • 1 ½ cups White Granulated Sugar (300g)
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 Tablespoon Distilled White Vinegar
  • ½ cup Soy Milk (120ml)
  • ½ cup Applesauce (140g)
  • 2 Tablespoons Smooth Apricot Jam (40g)
  • 2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil (30ml) Melted

FOR THE SAUCE:

  • ½ cup Vegan Butter (112g)
  • ¾ cup White Granulated Sugar (150g)
  • 1 cup Canned Coconut Cream (240ml) Unsweetened
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Spray a 9×9 square dish* with non-stick spray. Set aside.
  2. Sift the flour into a mixing bowl and add the sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt and mix together.
  3. Add the white vinegar to the soy milk and let it curdle. Then add that in along with the applesauce, apricot jam and coconut oil and mix into a batter. Use a hand whisk briefly to remove any large lumps. It’s okay if the apricot jam isn’t entirely mixed and has some little lumps.
  4. Transfer the batter to your prepared baking dish.
  5. Bake for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  6. When the malva is almost finished cooking, start on your sauce.
  7. Add the butter to a saucepan and melt it. Add the sugar and coconut cream and heat together until it reaches a simmer, stirring all the while. Remove from the heat and add the vanilla extract.
  8. When the malva comes out the oven, poke holes all over it with a toothpick and then pour over the sauce making sure to distribute it evenly across the whole pudding. Let the sauce sink in and then cut into squares.
  9. Serve warm with vegan whipped cream or vegan ice cream.
