Why not, a quick and easy, comfort snack!
So, let's make some gluten free tempura–in my case, potatoes only. (You can add pretty much anything).
The Ingredients:
3-4 small potatoes
Rice Flour (to make sure it's gluten-free, the label MUST only have Rice Flour as the ingredient)
Water
Olive or Canola Oil (I prefer Olive)
A Knife
So, begin by finely slicing the potatoes. (I prefer to cut them in half by the length of the potatoes). Then I begin the thin layer slicing–keeping the skin!
Next place the sliced potatoes in cold water for 5-10 minutes; after that, time for a thorough rinse. Then dry on paper towels.
Let's prep the rice flour batter:
1 part flour with 2 parts H2O. Mix thoroughly; and let sit for 5-10 minutes.
Now let's get cookin':
After dipping the dry slices of the potatoes in the batter–i move 3-4 slices into the hot oil. Let it simmer for a bit–I like it a little brown.
Remove from the pan; and repeat the above 'till you're done.
Garnish with sprinkle of salt and a dip of you're choosing. Make sure, if you use soy sauce–it HAS to be gluten-free. Natural soy sauce is not your friend.
Enjoy the snack with coffee or a hot sake.
