Description

Root vegetables and leeks are given a Japanese treatment in this quick tempura recipe. Serve to your guests with sweet chilli sauce for dipping.

Method

Step 1 of 5

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Carefully add the vegetables and cook for about 2 minutes until blanched. Remove from the heat and drain using a colander.

Step 2 of 5

Transfer the vegetables onto kitchen paper, pat dry, and transfer to a large bowl. Sprinkle over the cornflour, toss to coat well, and set aside.

Step 3 of 5

For the batter, place all the ingredients in a separate bowl and using a balloon whisk, mix until well combined.

Step 4 of 5

Heat the oil in a large wok over a high heat. Dip the vegetables in the batter, a few at a time, to coat lightly, shaking off any excess. Then deep-fry for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden.

Step 5 of 5

Using a slotted spoon, remove the tempura from the pan and drain on double layer of kitchen paper. Serve immediately.
