Instructions
-
Prepare the Ingredients:
Start by finely slicing the scallions into small pieces. Then, cut the tempeh into bite-sized chunks or any shape you prefer. The texture of the tempeh adds a hearty bite to the fritters. -
Make the Batter:
In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced scallions and chopped tempeh. Add the bakwan flour mix into the same bowl. Slowly pour in the water, stirring the mixture until a thick batter forms. The batter should be smooth enough to hold the ingredients together but not too watery. -
Fry the Fritters:
Heat enough cooking oil in a pan to deep fry. Once the oil is hot, spoon a portion of the batter and carefully drop it into the oil. Fry each piece until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway to ensure even cooking. -
Drain and Serve:
Once cooked, remove the fritters from the pan and drain the excess oil by placing them on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce for a delicious snack.
Enjoy your crispy, savory Tempe Bakwan!
