Arrange the rounds in a rosette in an oiled dish (5 g) and bake for 45 minutes, until a blade slides through without resistance.

Lay the tempeh scored-side down in a hot pan with 5 g of oil and sear it for 4 minutes over medium heat without touching it, until a clear brown crust forms.

Turn it for 3 minutes, pour in the remaining marinade and let it caramelise for 2 minutes, spooning it over.

Cook the green beans (100 g) for 8 minutes in boiling salted water, then refresh them in iced water to set the colour.
