Tempura Shrimp
Sushi Ingredients
Method
Prepare Tempura Shrimp
- 1
Make the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the tempura batter mix with ice-cold water. Stir gently until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the batter light and airy.
- 2
Heat the Oil
In a deep pot, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 3
Fry the Shrimp
Dip each shrimp into the tempura batter, allowing excess batter to drip off. Carefully place the shrimp in the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
