- To make the sauce, warm the sake then add the chilli, soy sauce and mirin and leave to cool.
- To make the batter, mix the flours with the egg white, salt and soda water until smooth then leave to stand for 1 hour to allow the batter to settle.
- Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Heat the oil to 180C or until a cube of bread browns in a minute and line a plate with plenty of paper towels to drain the tempura.
- Dust the veg in flour and then coat in the batter, gently put a few pieces in the hot oil and fry for a good 2 minutes until they start to float. Remove from the hot oil, sprinkle with salt and set aside then let the oil come back up to temperature before frying the next batch. Keep everything warm in the oven in between batches.
- Serve the crispy tempura vegetables and lemon halves with the dipping sauce
