TEMPURA VEGETABLES

Hey everyone,
This recipe is for a delicious Japanese food which I love and I'm going to be telling you how you can make your own at home! Tempura can get really expensive in resteraunts so I was interested in finding out how to many it yourself and save some money. Now that I know how, I wanted to share it with you all!
The secret is Trident Tempura Batter Mix! For under $5, one pack makes an excessive amount of Tempura! If you were to buy this much tempura at a resteraunt it would cost you over $40!
STEP ONE
MIX
Start off by mixing your tempura mix with water and stirring it until all of the clumps are gone.

STEP TWO
COAT
Next evenly coat all of your vegetables in the batter. If you can see your vegetables clearly through the batter, you have added too much water and can fix this problem by adding a bit more flour to the mix.

STEP THREE
DIP
Now it's time to dip your batter covered vegetables into a saucepan of boiling oil. The most important part of this is to not leave them in too long and do one at a time! If you leave it in too long, it's just a soggy, oily, burnt mess and if you put more than one in at a time, they stick together. Leave in until just browned.
Serve with on top of Japanese curry for an authentic meal good enough to be served at a resteraunt!
