Tempeh and Red Lentil Keema-style Curry
This curry was inspired by keema - a Pakistani dish traditionally made using minced lamb. We have replaced the meat with crumbled tempeh and red lenti...ls. Tamari and miso bring depth of flavour. Crumbling the tempeh in your hands yields the best texture - if you find this difficult to do you can pulse a chopped up block in the food processor until minced. Enjoy it on its own as a lighter meal or serve with rice, naan breads or a baked potato. Read more This curry was inspired by keema - a Pakistani dish traditionally made using minced lamb.

Very nice with flatbreads - made it with smoked tempeh which gave it more depth of flavour. Will definitely make again!
Very tasty. I deseeded the green chilli but will leave in next time for extra spice. Could be nice with a dollop of no fat Greek Yoghurt stirred through. Maybe add some Garam Masala
Utterly delicious!! Definitely going on regular rotation.
Added some coconut milk at the end - could also at dollop of Greek yoghurt if you didnโt have lime too to give an acidic and creamy flavour
Absolutely delicious ๐ฅฐ
Very tasty, I will cook it again!
Great recipe! Loved it. Did have to use some different spices as I donโt use curry powder but used garam masala plus turmeric instead.
First time I used Tempeh and I donโt like it very much. I donโt have a food processor, so it was very difficult to chop by hand and my hands in plaster so that didnโt help! The meal was tasty enough, but But not one of my favourites.
Banging!! Really filling too.
Delicious Curry, quick to produce, with the added ability to use up left over vegetables.
Delicious x
10/10 thanks very much guys- added in kale too , suspect could otherwise sneak, brocoli or brussel sprouts in
First time cooking with Tempeh. And it was delicious ๐Will definitely be making this again!
Yet another one of your super quick yet delicious recipes! Loved the flavours here, even though the only spice used was curry!
Followed recipe exactly
Delicious
Light yet filling and satisfying
Could you add more tempeh to increase protein level? (Aiming for 44g for day)
Delicious!! I have a hard time incorporating lentils, but this so good!
My husband prepared this for lunch today and it was delicious! He did use a can of chopped tomatoes instead of passata and also included the lime and chopped coriander. We will certainly be having this again although crumbling the tempeh wasnโt entirely successful. Next time he says he will pulse it in the blender. Thanks for another delicious recipe. ๐
Soo good. Love it. I like that it doesn't contain mushrooms. I love mushrooms but my kids don't, unfortunately. This is perfect for my family. Thabk you
Donโt think it needs all the extra waterโฆ perhaps 75% less waterโฆ ?
Fantastic! First time I have tried tempeh. Looks weird but tastes great as it soaks up all the flavours of the sauce.
Loved this as much as I love the tempeh Bolognese. Thank you for sequencing the ingredients in the order that the cook needs them (not sure if you fixed that in the Bolognese recipe.) The red lentils adds a nice bulk and allows for plenty of leftovers.
