If you want to cook Zucchini Tempura, I recommend to season the batter with Curry Powder and Salt. And I like to fry them quickly in hotter oil, so that Zucchini retains the crunchiness, but it is your choice to fry them until soft. Because of the water content of the vegetable, these Zucchini Tempura won’t stay crispy, but they are yummy. Great with chilled White Wine OR Beer.
