Step-by-step
Using a different robot? Switch it here:
- Make a few cuts along the underside of the shrimp so they stay straight.
- Put the egg, cold water, flour and salt in the mixing bowl. Mix 10 sec/speed 4 without overmixing.
- Dip each shrimp in the batter and fry in hot oil until they float and turn golden.
- Drain on paper towel.
- Serve immediately with soy sauce or tentsuyu dipping sauce.
Tips
- Very cold water is key to a light tempura.
- Don't overmix the batter — lumps give a better texture.
