Tempura Battered Vegetables
2 cups AP Flour
1 ½ T Baking Powder
2 T Sesame Oil
1 egg
2 ½ cups (20 oz.) really cold beer. (Carbonated Water can be substituted)
½ cup corn starch
20 – 24 Green Beans
20-24 mushrooms
10-12 mild peppers
1 onion sliced for rings
Blend the dry ingredients together. Add the sesame oil and egg and whisk. Add
the beer and stir with chop sticks to prevent overmixing. Lumps are a good thing
here.
Lightly toss vegetables in the cornstarch and shake off any excess.
Dip vegetables into the cold tempura batter, let some of the excess run off and
fry immediately at 360-375 degrees until they are golden brown and heated
through. Drain on a paper towel and serve with aioli.
