Directions
Method:
Mix all the ingredients of the marinade and add Tempeh.
Cook the mixture in pan on low heat, partially covered for 15-20 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed by the tempeh.
Once the tempeh is dry, add a teaspoon of oil and toss on medium for 2-3 minutes, until the edges of the tempeh become golden. Take off heat and keep aside.
Curry:
Meanwhile, in a deep medium pan, add 2 teaspoons oil and heat on medium.
Add the onion and cook for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally till it becomes translucent and golden.
Add the spices( turmeric, coriander powder, hing, garam masala, paprika and fenugreek leaves) and mix well. Add Kale, mix and cook for another minute.
Blend the tomatoes, ginger, garlic and chili into a smooth puree.
Add the puree to the onion mixture and cook on low-medium heat for 15-20 minutes stirring occasionally, until the mix thickens, comes together and leaves oil on the sides.
Add the crisp tempeh, and greek yogurt, salt and sugar and mix well.
Taste and adjust spices, salt.
Add almond milk to get the curry consistency you like.
Mix well and bring to a boil on low heat.
Take off heat, serve hot topped with fresh chopped cilantro, with Indian flat breads(Roti/Naan) or Basmati rice.
