Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Heat oil until hot but not smoking for proper crisp texture.
- Mix batter lightly, keeping it slightly lumpy for airy coating.
- Dip shrimp and vegetables into batter, coating evenly.
- Fry in small batches until golden and crisp, avoiding overcrowding.
- Drain on paper towels and serve immediately for best crunch.
Notes
Use cold batter for crisp texture; warm batter turns heavy. Fry briefly for light crunch or longer for extra crispiness. Do not freeze fried tempura as texture softens. Handle gently when removing from oil. Customize with different vegetables or seafood. Store leftovers briefly and reheat in oven to restore crispness.
