shrimp tempura

Fried coated crustaceans

Shrimp tempura is a Japanese dish of shrimp coated in a light, crispy batter and deep-fried.

The batter is distinctively thin and airy, made with cold water to keep it from becoming heavy.

Shrimp tempura appears as an appetizer, a sushi roll ingredient, or served over rice or noodles: I'll have the shrimp tempura roll.
