Crispy Tempe Mendoan: Delicious Indonesian Fried Tempeh Snack
Tempe Mendoan Recipe
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Tempe | 1 long piece (approximately 200g) |
| All-purpose flour | 200g |
| Green onions | 1 bunch |
| Garlic | 2 cloves |
| Salt | 1 teaspoon |
| Water | As needed (to mix) |
| Cooking oil | 200ml |
Instructions:
- Begin by slicing the tempe into thin pieces, ensuring they are uniform for even cooking.
- Finely chop the green onions and set them aside.
- In a mortar or food processor, grind the garlic with salt until you achieve a smooth paste.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and chopped green onions. Gradually add water to the mixture, stirring until you achieve a batter that is not too runny.
- Heat the cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully dip the sliced tempe into the batter, ensuring it is well-coated, then gently place it in the oil.
- Fry the tempe until it turns golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Enjoy your delicious Tempe Mendoan as a delightful snack or appetizer!
