tempura vegetables
Fried Japanese greens
Tempura vegetables are vegetables coated in a light batter and deep-fried until crispy, a preparation borrowed from Japanese cuisine.
The batter—typically flour, egg, and ice water—creates a delicate, airy coating rather than a heavy crust.
Common choices include sweet potato, broccoli, green beans, and eggplant: We ordered the tempura vegetables as an appetizer.
