Alaska Halibut Tempura

This is another recipe someone gave me handwritten on an index card. I haven't tried it yet. Amount of halibut and broccoli and cooking time is a guess.

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 4
• Yields: 1 tempura

Ingredients

• Batter

• 2  cups flour
• 3  tablespoons  grated parmesan cheese
• 1  teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2  tablespoons  oil
• 3  eggs, beaten
• 1 3⁄4 cups  flat beer or 1 3⁄4 cups water
•  vegetable oil (for frying)
• 1 1⁄2 lbs  halibut, cut in 1-inch chunks
• 1  onion, cut in rings
• 2  carrots, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch chunks
• 8  broccoli florets
• 1  green pepper, cut in rings

Directions

1. Combine flour, parmesan cheese, salt and garlic powder. Mix together oil, eggs, and beer. Add moist mixture to dry ingredients. Heat oil in a deep fryer or deep pan to 350*. When oil is hot, dip halibut chunks in batter and deep fry until golden brown. Vegetables are battered and fried in same way. Ingredients should be dry, or dipped in flour for the batter to adhere firmly. Drain on paper and serve at once.
