Sajiku All-purpose Seasoning Flour 2 tablespoons
Water (Air Matang) 100 ml

Instructions

Step Details
Step 1: Slice the tempe Cut the tempe into medium-sized pieces. Avoid making them too thin, as this will ensure they remain crunchy when fried.
Step 2: Prepare the batter In a bowl, combine the Sajiku All-purpose Seasoning Flour with water to create a thick batter. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter—neither too thick nor too runny.
Step 3: Coat and fry Dip the sliced tempe into the batter, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and fry the tempe until golden brown and crispy.
Step 4: Drain and serve Once crispy, remove the tempe from the oil and drain excess oil on a paper towel. Serve immediately while hot and crispy.
