Ingredients:

  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 piece bok choy
  • 1 large carrot
  • 1 medium zucchini
  • 1 quart canola oil
  • 1/2 lb soft tofu
  • 1/2 tbsp sambal oelek
  • salt and pepper

Directions:

  1. Cut vegetables into finger-size pieces, the carrot pieces need to be a little bit thinner (because carrots take longer to cook).
  2. Mix tempura flour, with egg and water, add a small amount of ice.
  3. Heat up the frying oil. To check temperature drip a little bit of batter into the oil, if the batter sinks and then slowly float up and gets a nice golden brown crispy texture, it's ready to go.
  4. Dip vegetable pieces in tempura mixture then place in oil. Vegetables are done when they are a golden brown color and have a crispy texture; will cook about 2 to 3 minutes, carrots may take a little longer than other vegetables.
  5. Remove vegetables from oil with slotted spoon and place on paper towels to cool.
  6. For the Tofu chili dipping sauce:.
  7. Put tofu, egg yolk and sambal oalek in a blender. Start blender and slowly add oil in a steady stream. If you find the sauce too thick, add some water. Salt and pepper to taste.
