Method
1
Prepare the tempura batter: in a mixing bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, and baking soda.
2
Gradually add ice-cold water, mixing lightly until just combined; some lumps are okay.
3
Keep batter cold.
4
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot to 170°C (340°F).
5
Dip each ingredient (shrimp, sweet potato slices, green beans, bell pepper) into the batter, coating evenly.
6
Carefully drop the battered pieces into the hot oil, frying until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch.
7
Do not overcrowd the pan.
8
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
9
Serve immediately with dipping sauces made from soy sauce and mirin, or your preferred condiments.
