Tempura Udon Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Udon Noodles

   Cook udon noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

2. 2

   Make the Tempura Batter

   In a bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and ice water until combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be lumpy.

3. 3

   Heat the Oil

   In a deep pot or fryer, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 170°C (340°F).

4. 4

   Fry the Shrimp

   Dip each shrimp into the tempura batter, allowing excess to drip off, and carefully place them in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

5. 5

   Prepare the Broth

   In a pot, heat the dashi broth over medium heat. Add soy sauce and mirin, stirring to combine.

6. 6

   Assemble the Dish

   In serving bowls, divide the cooked udon noodles, pour the hot broth over the noodles, and top with shrimp tempura and sliced green onions.
