Tempura



I used Shirakiku brand mix to make this -- AGES ago. Yes, I used a mix darn it. It's a lot of work, this dinner!

I made miso soup, a pot of rice, and fried up:

- carrots
- shrimp
-broccoli
- eggplant
- zucchini
- green beans


The key is to keep the batter extremely cold -- on a bed of ice, so that it stays lacy and crisp. It's yum, but oh is it a lot of work. Not for a fast weeknight.
