Tempura
Tempura
Tempura batter dry mix
Ingredients to fry:
Sliced eggplant
Sliced sweet potato
Shrimp
Enoki mushroom
Sliced fish
Nori
Sweet soy sauce (I use black bean soy sauce from O'Long)
Kikkoman Memmi sauce
Follow the instructions on the packaging for the tempura batter dry mix to make it into a wet batter.
Heat a pot of oil. You know it's ready when you drop a bit of batter in the oil and it starts to crisp up and float to the top.
For each piece of ingredient:
Lightly dip into the batter. For the nori, just dip one side.
Fry in the oil until it floats to the top of the pot and is golden crisp.
Drizzle some sweet soy sauce.
Dip into the Memmi sauce for some extra flavor and to cut through the oil. I think the tempura also goes well with a bowl of plain chilled coleslaw mix.
