Hazırlanışı

Adım adım

1. 1

   In a shallow dish, whisk together the soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper to create the marinade.

   Yaklaşık 1 dk.

2. 2

   Add the sliced tempeh to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes, or longer if time permits.

   Yaklaşık 10 dk.

   Aşçının notu: Marinating longer will result in a deeper flavor.

3. 3

   While the tempeh marinates, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, combine the vegan mayonnaise, ketchup, dill pickle relish, and horseradish (if using). Stir well until smooth.

   Yaklaşık 2 dk.

4. 4

   Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat.

   Yaklaşık 1 dk.

5. 5

   Once hot, add the marinated tempeh slices to the pan in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and slightly crispy.

   Yaklaşık 8 dk.

   Aşçının notu: Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.

6. 6

   Remove the cooked tempeh from the pan and set aside.

7. 7

   Lightly butter one side of each slice of rye bread with vegan butter (if using) or brush with a little olive oil. Place two slices, butter-side down, in the same skillet.

   Yaklaşık 1 dk.

   Aşçının notu: You can also use a toaster for the bread for a crispier texture.

8. 8

   Layer each slice of bread with a slice of vegan swiss cheese. Cook until the cheese begins to melt and the bread is toasted.

   Yaklaşık 2 dk.

   Aşçının notu: Covering the pan for a minute can help the cheese melt faster.

9. 9

   Spread a generous amount of the prepared dressing on the untoasted side of the remaining two bread slices.

   Yaklaşık 1 dk.

10. 10

    Assemble the sandwiches: on the toasted bread with melted cheese, layer the cooked tempeh, then a pile of drained sauerkraut. Top with the bread slices spread with dressing.

    Yaklaşık 1 dk.

11. 11

    Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
