Looks delicious! Thank you!

[@ElaVegan]

You are so welcome! 😊

I always give praise when it's due for any preventative medicine in these dishes, as chefs should know about what they are using before they COOK, This recipe will go perfectly with Tempeh also, There are many clear advantages to using Tempeh versus Tofu, MORE NUTRIENTS (keeping it short) and less bad stuff. There is more B12 (cobalamins) and B9 (folates) vitamin contents. I'm going to use this with Tempeh, its a perfect recipe for this, great ideas as always thank you very much.

[@ElaVegan]

You are welcome! I wish I could buy tempeh where I live, but I can't.

Great recipe! At what temperature and for how long in the air fryer?

[@pphiphi.1729]

Et température et temps de cuisson? Merci

[@vickiehogue2646]

think using a larger bowl would be best… at least for me. Looks YUMMY!!

[@ElaVegan]

Probably yes 😂

[@smitapatel8806]

Yummy

[@ElaVegan]

It was 😊

[@norazapatakrey8927]

Thank you. Looks yum. Do you have a tempeh recipe

[@ElaVegan]

No, because I can't buy tempeh where I live. But I am sure you can simply use tempeh instead of tofu.

I want an air fryer but hesitate due to the nonstick basket. I avoid cooking on nonstick pans as much as I can.

Désolée, mais le tofu est un perturbateur de toutes les glandes endocriniennes…alors dommage

[@maestoso47]

Does this claim have merit?

[@ElaVegan]

Nope. www.pcrm.org/news/health-nutrition/new-research-disputes-biggest-soy-myths

Ce que je voulais dire c’est le soja qui est un perturbateur endocrinien, c’est prouvé aujourd’hui 🥹 Je ne peux lire les réponses en anglais, je suis française 🦋🌸🌿
