Tempura Shrimp and Sauce
Method
Preparation and Cooking
Prepare the Tempura Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the tempura batter mix with ice water until just mixed. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Make sure there is enough oil for deep frying.
Batter and Fry the Shrimp
Dip the rock shrimp and shiitake mushrooms into the tempura batter, allowing excess batter to drip off. Carefully drop them into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Make the Spicy Sauce
In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, yuzu juice, and sriracha sauce until well combined.
Assemble the Dish
On a serving plate, create a bed of mixed greens. Place the crispy tempura shrimp and shiitake mushrooms on top. Drizzle with yuzu dressing and the creamy spicy sauce.
