Whiting Tempura - cooking recipe

Ingredients

None None FOR THE DIPPING SAUCE
1/4 cup Japanese soy sauce
2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 None green onions, thinly sliced
None None FOR THE WHITING TEMPURA
1 None egg
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
None None Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
12 None whiting fillets (about 2 lbs)

Preparation

For the dipping sauce, combine the sauces, 2 tbsp water, lemon juice and onion in a small bowl and whisk to combine.
For the tempura, whisk the egg and 3/4 cup iced water in a large bowl. Stir in the combined sifted flour and cornstarch. Do not overmix; the batter should be lumpy.
Fill a large saucepan one-third full with vegetable oil; heat to 350\u00b0C (or until a cube of bread turns golden in 10 seconds). Dip the fillets, one at a time, in the batter and deep-fry, in batches, until lightly browned and just cooked through. Drain on paper towels. Serve with dipping sauce.
