This is a good recipe, but not great. The family ate and loved the food. However, if you are seeking a crispy, light tempura batter similar to that found in Japanese restaurants, this is NOT it.

My five year old help to make the batter while I did the veggies which turned out well. Good recipe that the kids can help with...and nothing like tempura to have kids eating vegetables they normally don't like to eat!

My first time making a tempura batter, this recipre was easy to make. I used the handle of my wooden spoon to mix the ingredients as we don't have chopsticks and that worked well. I also used a rice bran oil for frying. This was good as you can get it very hot. One thing I didn't think of was draining the oil off each piece. I piled them on top of each other which left those pieces at the bottom soggy. So next time I will be using a different method.

soft coating -- not at all crisp as tempura should be...

This was so easy and made a delicious light batter. It will become a family favourite I'm sure.

This is just a comment not a review. That said, I want to say this is the basic recipe I have used for tempura get togethers since the early '60s. I've used it for just about everything. My favorites are broccoli, cauliflower, chicken, snowpea pods(stick about 5-6 of them on a toothpick), small onions quartered(stick on toothpick, also), sweetpotatoes(yams), mushrooms(whole), pepper chunks, shrimp, and firm fleshed fish. We've even done dessert tempura with fruits and cake chunks, with chocolate dipping sauce and/or fruit sauces.
Boy, did you bring back memories. This goes into my cookbook.

Fantastic! I've tried several other tempura batter recipes, and this is by far the best! So simple!
