Tempura and Fillings

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by cutting the salmon fillet into bite-sized pieces. Slice the avocado into thin strips and chop the sun-dried tomatoes into smaller pieces.

  2. 2

    Make the Tempura Batter

    In a bowl, combine the tempura batter mix with cold water. Whisk until smooth but do not overmix; small lumps are acceptable.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F).

  4. 4

    Fry the Ingredients

    Dip the salmon, avocado, and sun-dried tomatoes into the tempura batter, ensuring they are well-coated. Carefully place them in the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes, then remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Arrange the fried tempura pieces on a plate and drizzle with sunmiso sauce. Serve immediately while hot.
