De bereidingswijze
Stap voor stap
- 1
Prepare the vegetables for tempura: slice the eggplant and sweet potato, and trim the green beans.
Ongeveer 10 min
- 2
Pat the shrimp and prepared vegetables very dry with paper towels. This helps the batter adhere better.
Ongeveer 5 min
- 3
In a medium saucepan, combine the soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, and dashi stock for the tendon sauce. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and set aside.
Ongeveer 5 min
Tip van de kok: Do not boil the sauce; just gently simmer to combine flavors.
- 4
Heat the vegetable oil in a large deep pot or Dutch oven to 170-180°C (340-350°F). Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature.
Ongeveer 5 min
Tip van de kok: Maintaining a consistent oil temperature is key to crispy tempura.
- 5
While the oil heats, prepare the tempura batter. In a large bowl, whisk together the ice water and egg yolk until just combined.
Ongeveer 2 min
- 6
Sift the batter flour into the wet ingredients. Mix briefly with chopsticks or a fork until just combined; it's okay if there are lumps. Do not overmix.
Ongeveer 1 min
Tip van de kok: Overmixing develops gluten, leading to a tough, bready tempura.
- 7
Lightly dust the shrimp and vegetables with the dredging flour.
Ongeveer 2 min
- 8
Dip a few pieces of shrimp or vegetables into the batter, letting excess drip off. Fry in the hot oil in small batches to avoid overcrowding the pot.
Ongeveer 8 min
Tip van de kok: Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch, turning as needed.
- 9
Remove the fried tempura with a slotted spoon or spider and place on a wire rack set over paper towels to drain excess oil. Season lightly with salt if desired.
Ongeveer 2 min
Tip van de kok: Keep the fried tempura warm in a low oven while you fry the remaining batches.

Assemble the Tendon: Fill individual serving bowls with steamed rice. Arrange a selection of tempura pieces over the rice.
