Zucchini Tempura with Rice Flour

Ingredients

• 2 Zucchini
• Rice flour　
• Mentsuyu (noodle soup base)　
• Grated garlic　
• Frying oil

【Directions】

①Cut the zucchini into sticks.

②Mix Grated garlic　 with noodle soup base and let the zucchini marinate in it for 30 minutes to 1 hour to season.

Making small incisions in the zucchini helps the flavors penetrate better.

③Coat the zucchini evenly with rice flour.

④Heat frying oil to 180°C (356°F) and fry for 2-3 minutes.

⑤Drain excess oil and serve on a plate.

You can garnish with lemon or enjoy with tartar sauce for added deliciousness.

Frying gives the zucchini a soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture similar to eggplant, making it delicious.

Note: The term "noodle soup base" refers to the soup concentrate or seasoning used for making noodle soup.
