Some of The Plating Fried Tempeh Works

Melt sauce acts like a fortune! Sometimes I feel lucky, sometimes not if the melted sauce that I made on the plating plate gets badly formed.

Well, it's time for me to practice food plating again. This time I will invite you to see some plating fried tempeh works that are not entirely good in my mind, but some are worth sharing here.


A Traditional Fried Tempeh Recipe

Before plating, I cooked the menu. This is one of my favorites and makes it quite tricky. Fried Tempeh with a texture that is half cooked in it.


For the outer layer, use flour mixed with turmeric powder. So the color of turmeric is dominant in this type of fried tempeh.

This dish is served with spicy soy sauce with chopped fresh chilies and shallots without cooking.

I use hot soy sauce to complement the plating.




FORMING SAUCE

As usual, let's start by shaping the sauce on the plating plate.

I started by putting soy sauce without chili and shallot slices. I need that sauce to form the lines.

After I finished getting the line even though it wasn't straight, then, I lifted the plating plate to make the sauce melt downwards.

The melted sauce has formed. At first, it looks pretty good. Unfortunately, this shape does not last until the end because the thickness of the texture decreases.

Then, I add the pre-prepared chili and red onion slices to the pre-prepared sauce.




ADDING FRIED TEMPEH AND DETAILS

Arrange the fried tempeh on top of the sauce that has been formed. Add to the sides of the sauce.

Then, for details, I used coconut milk sauce added with turmeric powder. The combination makes for great color.

I add small details to the remaining space. This is the final result.

Shooting Session and Changing Angle

During a photoshoot, I changed the angle of the photo by rotating the plating plate. That results in a different perspective on the results of the photography. Below are the results of some changes in the angle of the photo object.

AN EXPERIMENT

After finishing with the above shot, I want to do some more practice.

So, I repeated the plating with a different form of sauce. The layout of fried tempeh and sauce is very different from the initial plating.

In my mind, this includes plating messy because of the abstract shape of the yellow sauce and I'm out of luck controlling them.

What do you think? Is this second plating bad?




THE POWER OF THE SIMPLICITY

The simplicity of plating can be a great visual strength. Often I forget this point. I painstakingly practiced painting my plating plate with the sauce. In fact, simplicity can always win over the visual point.

After my second practice, I finally decided to create a simple plating. Ah, this is enough to captivate me! Isn't it?

How about you? Which plating do you like best? The first, second, or third part that comes with simplicity?
