Shrimp Tempura RecipeIngredients:
10 large shrimps Corn starch for dusting Oil for deep frying (vegetable oil : sesame oil = 10 : 1)
Tempura Batter (rule is egg water: flour=1:1)
1 cup (240 ml) egg water (1 cold large egg (40ml) + 200 ml ice water) 1 cup (240 ml) cold all purpose flour
Tempura Sauce
¾ cup (200 ml) dashi (or ¾ cup water + 1 tsp. Hondashi) 3 Tbsp. soy sauce 2 Tbsp. mirin 2 tsp. sugar 2" (5 cm) daikon radish, grated and squeeze liquid out
Instructions1. To make tempura sauce, combine dashi, soy sauce, mirin, and sugar in a small saucepan and
bring it to a boil. Then lower the heat and let it simmer until sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and set aside.
2. To prepare shrimp, 3. In a deep fryer, heat 1½" (3 cm) of the oil to 338-356F (170-180C). You can check the
temperature with chopsticks or with a thermometer. When you see small bubbles around chopsticks, it’s pretty much ready for deep frying.
4. To make tempura batter, sift the flour into a large bowl.5. Add the egg into very cold water6. Whisk the egg mixture vigorously and discard the form on the surface.7. As you slowly pour the egg mixture into the flour, mix the batter but do not over mix. It's okay to
leave some lumps in batter. Keep the batter cold all the time.8. Dust corn starch on top of shrimps9. Coat the shrimp in batter10. Deep fry until golden brown. Do not crowd the fryer with shrimps; leave at least half of oil surface
empty. Transfer cooked shrimp tempura to a wired rack or a plate lined with a paper towel to drain excess oil. Between batches, remove the crumbs which will burn and turn the oil darker if left in fryer
11. Grate the daikon and squeeze the liquid out. Serve shrimp tempura with warm tempura sauce and grated daikon.

Poulet à la Kiev
IngredientsFor the herb butter:
8 tablespoons butter, softened 2 cloves garlic, finely minced 2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley 2 tablespoons finely chopped tarragon 2 tablespoons finely chopped chives 1/4 teaspoon pepper juice of 1/2 lemonFor the poultry:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1/3 cup all purpose flour 1 egg, beaten 1 cup fine bread crumbs (you may need more) Canola oil for fryingDirections
1. Begin by preparing the herb butter. Mix all of the ingredients together in a small mixing bowl until thoroughly combined. Some of the lemon juice may remain separate. Mound the mixture on a piece of plastic wrap and mold into a log. Cover completely in plastic wrap and refrigerate until hard.
2. Meanwhile flatten the breasts by wrapping them in plastic wrap and hammering them with a meat hammer or a rolling pin until they are about 1/3 inch thick. Don't mangle them - just get them on the slender side.
3. Prepare three shallow bowls for dipping: one with flour, one with the beaten egg, and one with the bread crumbs.
4. Remove the hardened filling from the refrigerator and slice into eight equal portions (each piece should be a little less long than the breastis wide). Place a piece of butter towards one end of each breast and then roll the meat up tightly round the filling. Tuck in the edges and any stray bits as you roll. Press firmly together.
5. Dredge each roll thoroughly in flour, then egg, and finally in bread crumbs. Be sure everything is well coated. Place the rolls on a plate and refrigerate for 1/2 hour before frying.
6. When you are ready to fry, add oil to a depth of about 1 inch to a sturdy deep pan. Heat the oil to 375°F. Carefully add the rolls one at a time. Fry for about 15 minutes (exact cooking time will depend on the size of your rolls) turning as needed with metal cooking tongs to completely brown the rolls on all sides and cook throughout.
7. Drain rolls on absorbent paper and serve immediately. Watch out when you cut into these as the filling is likely to squirt out.
Baked Chicken Kiev RecipeFollow the same method for preparing the herb butter and breasts as above. Instead of deep fat frying, lightly oil a baking dish and place the breaded rolls in this. Dot the rolls with additional butter and bake at 375°F for about 30 minutes or until the juices run clear and the chicken is cooked through.
