Ingredient!
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup of water
3 tbsp. vegetable oil
Frying oil (use vegetable oil or other high-heat oil such as corn oil or canola oil)
Chopped mixed vegetables of all kinds
preparation!
First, prepare your vegetables so they are ready to go. You will need approx. 2-3 cups of vegetables, chopped to be about bit size. Lightly steamed sweet potatoes and yams are also a good option in a vegetarian tempura.
Next, when your vegetables are cooked, combine flour, salt, sugar and baking powder together. Slowly add in oil and water until the mixture becomes completely smooth and creamy. Chill for at least 15 minutes.
When you’re ready to make your tempura, heat several inches of vegetable oil in a wok or in a large skillet over high heat. Dip the vegetables in the batter, then drop in the oil.
Bring to a boil for approx. 3 minutes until crisp and slightly golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
