Name: Curried Vegetable Tempura Recipe
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 egg; 1 1/2 cups cake flour or all-purpose flour; 1/4 cup water plus one ice cube; 1 or 2 zucchinis, cut into 1/4 inch slices; 1 or 2 eggplants, depending on size, cut into 1/4 inch slices; 1/2 teaspoon salt; A dozen or so button mushrooms, halved; 4 tablespoons curry paste; 2 cups vegetable oil, for frying; additional flour, about 1/2 cup, for dredging

Servings: persons

1
Sprinkle the slices of eggplants with 1/2 teaspoon of salt; set aside for 10 to 15 minutes. Then, with a paper towel, pat dry the moisture from the slices.
2
Place the curry paste in a bowl along with 1/4 cup of water. Mix well. Then add the egg and flour to the bowl, and mix lightly. The batter should be somewhat lumpy. Add the ice cube to the batter just before use.
3
Heat the oil in a wok or skillet to 350u00b0F.
4
Pick up one vegetable slice and lightly dredge with flour. Then dip the slice in the batter, and add it to the hot oil. Fry for 1 to 2 minutes, depending on the vegetable, until the batter is golden brown and the vegetable is cooked through. The mushrooms will take longer (about 4 minutes). Transfer the fried vegetables to a rack to prevent the coating from becoming soggy. Eat as soon as possible for optimal crispiness.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
