Whether you are vegan, vegetarian, or simply curious about Balinese food, our vegan cooking class offers an enjoyable introduction to Bali's plant-based culinary traditions.
What Is Tempe Medadah?
Tempe Medadah is a traditional Indonesian tempeh preparation that highlights the natural flavor and texture of tempeh combined with carefully selected seasonings.
Tempeh itself is made from fermented soybeans and has been part of Indonesian cuisine for generations. Its firm texture and slightly nutty flavor make it an excellent ingredient for absorbing spices and seasonings.

In Balinese cooking, simple ingredients can become incredibly flavorful when combined with fresh herbs, chilies, shallots, garlic, and traditional spices. Tempe Medadah is a great example of how plant-based cuisine can be both uncomplicated and satisfying.
During our Bali cooking class, you will discover how local cooking techniques and spices bring this traditional dish to life.
