When I saw Tempea food's Instagram story that about the teriyaki tempeh and pinapple, reminded me sweet and sour pork.
I didn't like it with pineapple when I was a kid, but now, I like it. It makes sense the pineapple brings good acidity and sweetness.  
However. I didn't make it for long..I even forgot about it.
Then, I came up with this recipe. Vegan sweet and sour...tempeh balls. People use ketchup for the sauce..but my recipe doesn't.
You can add it if you desired.
Ingredients : about two servings
<Tempeh balls>
Flax seed, 1 Tbsp 
Water, 1/4 cup 
Tempeh, 100g, crushed
Small onion, 1/4 piece , diced in small

Corn meal, 1Tbsp
Sesame paste(Tahini), 1 Tbsp
Salt and pepper to taste
​Oil to fry
Corn starch for dusting the balls

<Sweet and sour vegetables>
 - Veggies -
Onion, small, 1/4 piece, cut in bite size 
Carrot,              1 piece, cut in bite size
Celery,             1 steak,cut in bite size
​Red pepper,     1 piece,cut in bite size
Pine apple, 1/4 pound, cut in bite size 

Button mushrooms, tiny ones, half hands full
Garlic, 1 piece, minced
Ginger, 1/4 inch, minced
 - sauce -
Corn starch, 1/4 cup
Veggie stock or water, 1 cup
Apple cider vinegar, 1/2 cup
Maple syrup, 3 Tbsp
Soy sauce, 3 Tbsp
