Try this delicious skin-friendly recipe next time you have guests over (or keep it all for yourself!)

You’ll need:

  • 250gram packet of tempeh

  • 1 tablespoon of tamari

  • 1 tablespoon of nutritional yeast

  • 1 cup of frozen edamame beans

  • 2 medium-sized carrots, finely sliced

  • ½ a telegraph cucumber, finely sliced

  • ½ a capsicum, finely sliced

  • ½ an avocado, finely sliced

  • 1 handful of fresh coriander

  • 1 packet of soba noodles

  • Garnish with sesame seeds and fresh lime juice

To make:

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celcius

  • Slice the tempeh into slices approximately one centimetre thick.

  • Cover a baking tray with baking paper. Mix the tamari and nutritional yeast together in a small bowl. Brush the tempeh with the tamari mix. Lay the slices of tempeh on the tray and bake in the oven for 15 minutes.

  • While the tempeh is cooking, finely slice the carrots, cucumber and capsicum. Once the tempeh is cooked, remove from the oven and let it cool. Bring a large pot of water to a rapid boil. Add the soba noodles and use tongs to spread them out. Cook for approximately two and a half minutes until el dente. Immediately drain the noodles and transfer into a bowl of cold water to stop them cooking further.

  • Drain the noodles and transfer to a few paper towels to dry.

  • Slice the avocado and arrange all the components on a serving dish or plate into individual bowls. Drizzle with Bestow Beauty Plus Oil and garnish with sesame seeds and a squeeze of lime juice.
