Authentic Japanese Tempura Recipe | Crispy Shrimp & Vegetable Tempura

 Japanese Tempura is a light and crispy dish featuring shrimp, vegetables, or seafood coated in a delicate batter and deep-fried until perfectly golden. Known for its airy texture and subtle flavor, Tempura is one of Japan's most iconic dishes and is commonly served with tempura dipping sauce, steamed rice, or noodles. This authentic recipe uses ice-cold batter to create the signature crisp coating, making it ideal for appetizers, side dishes, or a satisfying main course. 

Cooking Method


  1. Heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Pat the shrimp and vegetables dry.
  3. In a bowl, lightly mix the flour, cornstarch, egg, and ice-cold sparkling water. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  4. Dip each shrimp and vegetable piece into the batter.
  5. Fry in small batches for 2–4 minutes, until light golden and crispy.
  6. Remove and drain on a wire rack or paper towels.
  7. In a small saucepan, warm the dashi stock, soy sauce, and mirin to prepare the dipping sauce.
  8. Serve the tempura immediately with the warm dipping sauce, grated daikon, and lemon wedges.
