1

Reduce heat to medium, add tempeh, celery, carrots and mushrooms and cook for 15 - 20 minutes.

Stir through tomatoes, basil, oregano and salt and pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes or until the liquid is slightly reduced. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a few tablespoons of water. Adjust seasoning.
