Tempura Udon
Ingredients
2 Udon
Water 400cc
Dashi 1tsp
Soy Sauce 3tbs
Mirin 1tbs
Sugar 2tbs
Salt 2tsp
Plain Flour 100g
Cold Water 150cc
6 King Prawns

1 Sweet Potato
How to make Tempura Udon
Tempura
Mix the Plain flour with the water in a bowl.
Remove the shell from the king prawns. Then score the back of each prawn, removing the thin black line. If you like you can leave the tail on for decoration, which you can also eat.
On the inside of the prawn score three lines horizontally, this will give the prawn greater length.
Cut the sweet potato and green pepper into sizes of your choice.
Heat the oil which you will use to fry the Tempura to 160 - 180 degrees. Dip the ingredients into the tempura mix and place into the hot oil. Cook for 3 - 5 minutes.
Udon
Boil the udon for 5 to ten minutes
Remove the udon from the heat, and drain the udon into a sieve. Cool with cold water and leave until cold.
For cold udon tempura stock, put 400cc water into small pan, bring to the boil and then remove from the heat. Add the dashi stock, soy sauce, mirin and sugar mixing well. Leave to cool.
Place the udon into a bowl with the tempura on top. Finally add the stock, Enjoy!.
