This dish has a unique, crispy, and savory flavor that makes it perfect for snacking while relaxing. This vegan snack has a fairly simple list of ingredients, so anyone can definitely give it a try. And what’s unique is that while peyek is often made with coconut milk, this version relies only on water and a few delicious spices. The flavor is just perfect, and I’m sure many people will make this their favorite snack. ![20261102_103450.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nurfay/23xAkfEL5eWo1tvYxGvVWy6qVF4UtB9idFbHLLDyVJBa8QvTEQmPYTNUAw3fdnrSJMAjA.jpg) Peyek snacks are indeed popular in my area; usually, they’re made with non-vegan ingredients. They’re typically prepared with a combination of coconut milk and other ingredients, such as eggs, to make them crispier. However, this time I’ve prepared them using just water and simple, delicious spices. Curious about how to make them? Let’s take a look at the recipe below.

Look at the result—peyek, which we usually make from peanuts or other nuts, but today we’re making it from tempeh. From the very first bite, the tempeh is truly extraordinary—it’s incredibly delicious, crispy, savory, and absolutely delightful on the tongue.

It’s perfect as a crispy snack to enjoy with a hearty soup. My husband loves it—we can polish off this snack in the blink of an eye. The flavor is truly exceptional—the savory notes are just right, and there’s a hint of heat from the added chili peppers. ![20261102_103900.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nurfay/23vsQCoafAxvMYiSsYo1j2LtrF9FkeNLLFPvsGriS3M5ycvVjbgGqdzSHAfQaFrSrfF73.jpg)
