- In the same pan, add in oil and sesame oil on medium-high heat.
- Add the garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes, and cook until golden brown and aromatic, about 1 minute.
- Add the tomato paste and vegetable broth, and stir until incorporated.
- Add the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and honey, and stir until all are incorporated.
- Add the cornstarch slurry (mix the cornstarch with the water in a small bowl until paste forms) into sauce mixture and stir until sauce thickens.
- Return the tempeh to the pan and allow to incorporate with the sauce. Top with sesame seeds (optional).
