- 2 large carrots, peeled and cut into ¼-inch thick rounds
- 1 large onion, cut into ½-inch thick wedges

- 2 cups broccoli florets
- Kosher salt
- ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce

Directions
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and 2 tablespoons sesame oil, and whisk to combine. Gradually whisk in water, mixing just
until moistened and lumps are gone. Do not overmix.
Heat 4 inches canola oil in a large pot to 325°F. Line 2 sheet pans with two layers of paper towels. Working in batches, using tongs, dip vegetables into batter and fry just until crispy , about 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to the prepared pans, and sprinkle

Serve fried vegetables immediately with the dipping sauce.









Yum! I’ve never tried to make tempura veggies but I love them. Thanks for the recipe Jamie!
B”H Thanks Jamie, as always another winner!
I watched Jacque Pepin’s Channukah celebration on YouTube yesterday, and he chopped up the vegetables, not too fine, mixed them together , and then put them in the tempura batter , and fried them like latkes…both ways sound yummy. Good Shabbos
Great idea, thanks for sharing.
Tempura..love it. Perfect when I want to have something fried (which is rare, but even so!)
Definitely a great way to get me to eat vegetables! Can’t wait to try this out!
I love tempura veggies. We just had them last night at a restaurant and my husband was saying that I really need to make it at home. Also love that you shared the tasty dipping sauce! This is a perfect Saturday night treat!
I’ve never made Tempura and always wanted to. Thanks for the recipe.
