Method
Prepare the Batter
- 1
Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rice flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.
- 2
Add Ice Water
Gradually add the ice water to the dry ingredients while stirring gently with a whisk. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

- 5
Heat the Oil
In a large, deep frying pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 6
Dip and Fry
Dip each piece of shrimp and vegetable into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place them into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Prepare the Dipping Sauce

Mix the Sauce Ingredients
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, mirin, grated daikon radish, and chopped green onions. Stir well to combine.
