  • Cold Water 150cc
  • 6 King Prawns
  • 1 Green Pepper
  • 1 Sweet Potato

  • Sugar 1tsp

Method

  1. Mix the Plain flour with the water in a bowl.
  2. Remove the shell from the king prawns. Then score the back of each prawn, removing the thin black line. If you like you can leave the tail on for decoration, which you can also eat.
  3. On the inside of the prawn score three lines horizontally, this will give the prawn greater length.
  4. Cut the sweet potato and green pepper into sizes of your choice.
  5. Heat the oil which you will use to fry the Tempura to 160 - 180 degrees. Dip the ingredients into the tempura mix and place into the hot oil. Cook for 3 - 5 minutes.

  7. For the Tempura dipping sauce, put 100cc water into small pan, bring to the boil and then remove from the heat. Add the dashi stock, soy sauce, mirin and sugar mixing well. Leave to cool.
  8. Eat Tempura quickly, otherwise it will loose its crispness.

Hi, number 6 is just a code mistake. Also, try to buy tempura flour if you can find some. You will definately find some in a local Asian supermarket. If not, plain flour will work well. Most of all, have fun!
