Serves:

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup ice-cold water

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the ice-cold water to the dry ingredients, whisking until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
Let the batter rest in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before using.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (180°C).
Dip your desired vegetables or seafood into the tempura batter, ensuring they are fully coated.
Carefully place the battered items into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Remove the tempura from the oil and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately with dipping sauces such as soy sauce or tempura sauce.
