Creamy Shrimp Tempura Help!

[Chrissy13]

Hi all, I recently had some really delicious creamy rock shrimp tempura and was wondering if I could get some good recipes! It was the perfect amount of spicy and sweet. Loved it! What would go well with it? Maybe some steamed veggies and/or noodles? What do you all think?

Hmmmm.... Creamy tempura?

Can you describe it? Tempura is breaded fried food

 

[CookLikeJulia]

I've noticed that too! Or maybe, it is tempura creamed with creamy rock sauce? Please post us the recipe to described it. Thanks!

You can make breaded Tempura Shrimp

That's a pic of exactly what I had!! Thanks for the recipe MollyAnne! I had it at Koi over in Hollywood and I give it an A+. What other dish do you think that would go well with if I'm cooking for a few friends?

The recipe I posted is not from Planet Hollywood though so it might taste a little different than theirs...I'm sure their recipe is a secret. Sandra Lee of Food Network has a recipe for it and she uses Shezuwan spice (sp?) instead of the Tobanjan garlic-sauce. Her reviews only gave 3 stars out of 5 so I doubt it's as good.

Fried food with mayo and heavy cream on it is not for me.

 

[mollyanne]

Well, you're no fun . Just teasing you jenny. I aim to please though so here's my suggestion: How about if you just adjust the recipe...use panko breadcrumbs, bake it instead of frying it, substitute Nayonnaise for Mayo (it's just as tasty but is a soy product), and leave off the heavy cream competely (you don't need it). If you need to thin it just use some skim milk.

Or yogurt?

 

[jennyema]

My favorite way to eat shrimp tempura is in maki rolls. Yum!

Or in a big bowl of miso soup with udon

 

[Chrissy13]

Or yogurt?

Ya, could I use yogurt instead? I'm not a fan of soy milk :/

It is a pretty heavy dish, but oh so yummy. I doubt I'll make some as good as that one anyway haha!

What are maki rolls?

 

[jennyema]

What are maki rolls?

sushi type rolls with rice and a tempura shrimp wrapped up in the middle -- seaweed on the outside, usually

You could use yogurt, my question mark was for whether you can tolerate it physically.
