Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup beer (not dark)
3/4 cup cake flour (not self-rising)
3/4 teaspoon salt
6 large shrimp, shelled and, if desired, deveined
1 small sweet potato
vegetable oil for deep-drying
1 small red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch-thick rings
6 asparagus spears, trimmed
:
Accompaniment: soy sauce for dipping, if desired

Steps:

  • In a bowl whisk beer into flour until smooth and stir in salt. Make several shallow cuts across inside curve of each shrimp and press shrimp gently (to help prevent curling during cooking). Peel sweet potato and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
  • In a 3-quart saucepan heat 2 inches oil to 375°F. Working in batches of 3 or 4 pieces, dredge shrimp, sweet potato slices, bell pepper rings, and asparagus spears in batter to coat completely, letting excess drip off, and fry, turning, until golden, about 3 minutes. Transfer tempura as fried to brown paper with tongs to drain and season with salt.
  • Serve tempura with soy sauce.

I love the flavor that the beer batter gives to the tempura. It's so much better than regular tempura batter.

This tempura recipe is a game-changer! The batter is light and crispy, and the vegetables stay perfectly tender on the inside. I've tried other tempura recipes before, but this one is by far the best.
