Housemade Guacamole

Spicy Mayo

Eel Sauce

Method

Tempura Shrimp Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a mixing bowl, combine tempura batter mix with ice water until smooth. Dip each shrimp into the batter, allowing excess to drip off.

  2. 2

    Fry the Shrimp

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the battered shrimp in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Crabstick and Cucumber Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Crabstick

    Cut the imitation crab sticks into bite-sized pieces, about 1-inch long.

  2. 4

    Prepare the Cucumber

    Thinly slice the cucumber into rounds or strips as desired.

Housemade Guacamole Preparation

  1. 5

    Make the Guacamole

    In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados with lime juice, red onion, cilantro, and salt until desired consistency is reached.

Spicy Mayo Preparation

  1. 6

    Mix Spicy Mayo

    In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce until well combined.

Eel Sauce Preparation

  1. 7

    Prepare Eel Sauce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, and mirin. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Assemble the Dish

    On a serving platter, layer the tempura shrimp, crabstick, and cucumber. Add dollops of housemade guacamole and drizzle with spicy mayo and eel sauce. Sprinkle tempura flakes and sliced scallions on top.
