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.

Ingredients

2-3 servings
  1. 1/8pumpkin
  2. as needed*all-purpose flour
  3. as needed*water (be careful not to add too much)
  4. 1 teaspoon*mayonnaise
  5. slightly less than 1 teaspoon *vinegar

Cooking Instructions

  1. 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. 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. 3

    If you're eating it later, reheat in a toaster to restore the crispiness!

    I have a recipe for just the crispy batter: Recipe ID: 20329720
