My Mother-in-Law's Recipe for Vegetable Kakiage Fritters
My mother-in-law often used to make this. This is a tribute to her.
My father suggested adding chikuwa.
As my husband loves kakiage (mixed vegetable tempura), I make this pretty frequently.
Eat with soba noodles or pack in your bento.
Once you drop the batter into the oil, don't touch it.
Use chopsticks to flip them over, but try not to touch them any more than that.
Keep a close eye on them.
They'll be crisp right out of the pan when the oil is hot, but will soften with time. To cook them so that they are crisp even when cold, fry on low heat. Recipe by Kohagaeru.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Thinly slice the onion, julienne the carrot, slice the chikuwa into 5 mm rounds. Combine the cut ingredients in a bowl, and dredge in 2 tablespoons of flour (not listed).

Make the batter. Combine the ☆ ingredients in a separate bowl, and whisk with chopsticks or a whisk. Add 100 ml of water and mix. Heat the oil.
- 3
Combine Step 1 into Step 2, and mix briskly (if the batter is loose, add more flour). Scoop up the batter mixture with a ladle or a large spoon and gently slide into the surface of the heated oil (about 180°C / 356°F).
- 4
Once the batter mixture hardens, flip over and fry until crisp. Avoid poking the fritters, and continue frying until completely crisp at a slightly slower temperature.

Chunky Fish Sausage and Vegetable Kakiage Fritters Chunky Fish Sausage and Vegetable Kakiage Fritters
These fish-sausage morsels are very colorful. They are fluffy when cooked, and I want them to have plenty of flavor on their own (without any dipping sauce and so on) so they are well seasoned too.When you drop the fritters in the oil in Step 3, form them so that each piece is fairly small and round. They will turn into cute round morsels. These are delicious as is, but you can eat them with ketchup or tempura dipping sauce if you like . For 2-4 servings. Recipe by caramel-cookie -

In the top photo, I served in a small rice bowl so the prawn tempura looks very big, but they are actually bite sizes.The flavour will improve if you add some sesame oil to the frying oil. Prawns are quick to cook so you need just a small amount of oil. Turn the sides several times and cook them through. Recipe by pappatyan -
