Tempura Batter Recipe
The tempura batter recipe produces that light, golden, crispy batter you thought you could only experience in Asian restaurants. It's perfect for frying shrimp, chicken, vegetables, and other delights. Try one or more of the tempura dipping sauce recipes below.
Tempura Batter
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
2/3 cup ice water
Yellow food coloring (optional)
Oil for deep frying
Your choice of dippers; shrimp, scallops, chunky-cut chicken and vegetables are good.
Sift together the dry ingredients.
Beat egg slightly and mix with the water and a few drops of the food coloring, if desired.
Add the dry ingredients. Stir only until mixed; mixture will be slightly lumpy.
Dip shrimp, chunky-cut chicken and vegetables, etc. into the batter and deep fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Serve, if desired, with one or more of these Dipping Sauces.
