Crispy Pumpkin Tempura

Thank you so much for 200 recipe reviews! The freshly fried, crispy texture enhances the sweetness of the pumpkin. Perfect as a snack or a dinner side dish.
Recipe Background: I wanted to prepare dinner before my husband came home, so I experimented with the batter to make tempura that stays crispy even after cooling. This is the result of that trial and error.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Scoop out the pumpkin seeds with a spoon and cut the pumpkin into appropriate widths. Mix the batter ingredients marked with * thoroughly (be careful not to add too much water; it should be slightly thick).
- 2
Dip the pumpkin slices into the batter and fry in oil. Once both sides are crispy, it's done. Drain the oil well and serve on a plate.
- 3
If you're eating it later, reheat in a toaster to restore the crispiness!

Crispy and Light Tempura Batter Crispy and Light Tempura Batter
I often see instructions like "Chill the water used for the batter in the refrigerator", but with that method the batter becomes lukewarm as you use it; plus it's a pain in the rear to chill the water before using it. If you use ice cubes you just have to drop them in the batter to keep it cool until the ends and it's easy! as long as you can master the batter, you can use any ingredients you like to fry in it.The batter is very floury, but it's OK! No one just fries the flour only, right? As long as you dip in 'liquid' instead of 'flour', as you dip more ingredients in the batter it will lose its flouriness. The key to crispy and light tempura is to not let the gluten in the flour develop and to maintain a temperature difference between the batter and the oil. The first requirement can be met by not over-mixing the batter. The second can be cleared by using ice to keep the batter very cold, and by using hot oil to increase the temperature difference. For plenty (haha). Recipe by satosayo cookpad.japan -

Tempura is a popular Japanese dish that can be found in almost any Japanese restaurant. Various seafood and vegetables are lightly coated in batter and fried until crispy.

Leftover veggies are perfect for making tempura. I made some with mine.I recommend also chilling the bowl if making this in the summer time. This will make a crispy batter! I guarantee that it won't be pasty. Melt ice cubes and use only the water. Test the oil temperature by dropping batter. If it sinks to the bottom and floats up, it's about 160℃. Be careful not to deep fry too much at once, as the temperature will drop! This is key! Don't turn the fritters while the batter is still soft! Recipe by Kona kotobuki cookpad.japan -
