Anywhere in CM I can buy tempeh? Tesco, Makro, and Tops don't carry it.

In the alternative, any restaurant food stall that serves tempeh?

Good luck finding items you were looking for. I've never seen or heard any items from Indonesia on sale in Chiang Mai except Kopi Luwak. Sometime I think local people don' even know where Indonesia is.

I order my Indonesian products online in Holland, works great!

Nothing available here, think Thai's don't like Indonesian food!

I have lived in Indonesia for the past 3 years, have enjoyed a great deal of their cuisine, all the dishes are made readily from ingredients found in Thailand. From beef rendang, to nasi goreng, mie goreng, bakso soup I make them all. I enjoy Thai food with the same enthusiasm. If your willing to spend some time in the kitchen, it is not that difficult to make all the required ingredients from scratch.quote. Just Google indonesian food, loads of great help available. Hope this helps some. name='kalbo123' timestamp='1318469967' post='4761910']

Sound great. I've never had any real Indonesian food before. How about you some Indonesian food like nasi goreng and I'll make you some Chicken Biryani (Indian Style with basmati) or other thing you may like and we swap the dish!

There is a Thai version of Tempeh called "Thua ngao". Most markets have it

They do when there is no Thai food available. Then after two meals Western-Chinese becomes so boring they'll actively dislike it. Then suddenly Indo/Malay or even Indian food comes into the picture.

It is surprising that Thais are not familiar with tempeh, it would be such a great ingredient in Thai dishes. Besides... it is healthy, cheap, filling... I am sure they'd love it.

@winnie: in general Thai friends love foreign food, but Indofood seemed to be forgotten here. Several Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Indian restaurants, but no toko Indonesia...

Suddenly I crave for a crusty tempeh-sandwich... thanks-a-lot.

A friend of mine in Sansai makes tempeh. Anyone interested PM me and I will try to get it.

Next week I'm off again to Yogya where I will live from tempeh, soto ayam and do not forget emping. I always carry emping with me to Thailand and last time brought the seeds of the trees. Not a single one germinated. Will bring more seeds this time and hope to have an "emping" tree at the farm in the future.

I saw an old TV thread that has some info for you: Tempeh Thread

Good one, just Elaine, "Healthy mate" seems to be the Thai brand.

There are videos on You Tube about how to make your own. Tempeh is one of my favorite Vegetarian foods as well. I'm curious about Thua ngao.

Tempeh is sold at Ban Suan Pak, the health food store located in a small compound of shops roughly half-way between the President Hotel and the US Consulate. You can find it in the freezer, a package of 150 grams for 35 baht.
