For the tempeh

  • Use your hands to crumble the tempeh.
  • Place your KIT pan on a medium to high heat and add half a cup of water, bring to the boil, add the tempeh, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until all the water has evaporated.
  • Add a generous amount of olive oil, and cook the tempeh for 6-8 minutes, stirring a few times.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the coconut milk, coriander, turmeric, garlic, cumin.
  • When the tempeh has browned, stir in the coconut milk mixture to coat the tempeh, and cook for a minute.
  • Set aside for later and wipe your K!T pan clean.

For the curry paste

  • Peel and roughly chop the shallot.
  • Peel the garlic and ginger.
  • For the lemongrass, slice off the very bottom of the stalk, peel off any dried out layers to expose the aromatic inside.
  • Whizz up all the paste ingredients together, you may need to add a splash of water to get a smooth paste.
  • Put to one side.

For the veggies

  • Thinly slice the peppers, then peel the carrots and cut into rounds.

For the curry

  • In your K!T pan, heat a couple of tablespoons of veg oil on medium to high heat.
  • Once hot, pour in the curry paste, stir and allow to cook for 2-3 minutes to release the delicious flavours.
  • Add the carrots, peppers, lime leaves, stock, coconut milk, give it a good stir and cook for about 20 minutes.
  • Add the broccoli for the last 2 minutes of cooking.
