Prepare the Spice Mixture: Begin by finely grinding the garlic and coriander with a pinch of salt until smooth. Combine this paste with the all-purpose flour and enough water to create a thick batter. Add the chopped celery leaves and mix thoroughly until well incorporated.
-
Coat the Tempe: Take each slice of tempe and dip it into the prepared batter, ensuring that it is evenly coated on all sides.
-
Fry the Tempe: Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the coated tempe slices in the pan. Fry them until golden brown, making sure to maintain a moderate temperature to prevent burning.
-
Repeat and Serve: Continue the process until all tempe slices are cooked. Serve the tempe mendoan warm, accompanied by green chili or sambal for dipping.
