The Cookbook/Tempura

Template:Recipe | Japanese Cuisine

Tempura is basically the fried food of Japan. Various meats and vegetables are dipped in batter and then deep fried until lightly golden.

To make the shrimp straight, skewer them before cooking. Remove the skewers before serving.

Serve over white rice garnished with black sesame seeds, in a bowl of udon noodle soup, or in a bowl of soba noodle soup. Serving in soup makes the breading get mushy of course.
