For tempura you can use rapeseed oil (natane abura). If you don’t have that you could use sunflower oil, or uhm… corn/peanut oil

What kind of oil are you frying in?

Thx! But how do you make the shrimp turn out really fluffy (just like in Japanese restaurants)?

Thanks you made it so delicately, very skillful. I will try to make a gluten-free version some time.

tippenyt: They taste like bamboo if you know, is not so much taste but a nice consistency

Lotus roots are new to me, what do they taste like (or close to)? Sweet, sour, what?!

got a friend going to CIA. I wish i could but it is way to much of a risk with your life to become a chef.

That’s true, but does such a dish exist in Portugal today?

lestatmm October 24, 2009 at 8:02 pm

I’ll not deny the fact that japanese sophisticated the recipe, but just search “google-images” for “peixinhos da horta” and you’ll see…

kirby4blues October 24, 2009 at 8:42 pm

I hope you’re *pretending* to be retarded. Tempura is native to Japan of course.

lestatmm October 24, 2009 at 9:34 pm

waw, nice recipe.
A nice portuguese recipe,
that’s what (by the way) tempura is!

shroater33 October 24, 2009 at 10:25 pm

you sir, are wrong.

rugged23WC October 24, 2009 at 10:41 pm

Sorry Chef Cheng is mispelled your name and “have her as your instructor.”

rugged23WC October 24, 2009 at 11:30 pm

I had Chef Cheung for Cuisines of Asias.If you think the video is good, have as your instructor. She is great.!!! My station was tempura on the days we did Japan cuisine. Thanks you for everything Chef..see you during Bachelors.

Looks better than the soggy mass I produced 5 minutes ago! Thanks.

blkbombchelle October 25, 2009 at 12:59 am

the batter also has corn starch and she left that out, I wonder why

puffypetticoat October 25, 2009 at 12:59 am

mm.. i love tempura. Is it really only flour and water for the batter though?

LilithEnthroned October 25, 2009 at 1:48 am

Chef Cheng is great!
