  • Thank you so much for teaching us how to make it! And being so safe about it too.

  • this is not the real japanese way

    in japan they almost never use coconut milk or curry powder into recipes

    this is probably and thai or maybe chinese version of tempura

  • I used to cook tempura, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

  • JAPAN BEST COUNTRY EVER!! FOOD PARADISE T.T wish i could go there right now..

  • that's not shrimp tempura..sorry!

  • Holy fack! You really don't know how to make tempura, you idiot! Ingredients all wrong. Mixing all wrong (batter too smooth). Shrimps all curled. Cooking tempura to a golden brown?! What planet are you from? Tempura should not be golden brown. It should rather be more on the white side. And, what's with the coconut dipping sauce?! Very un-Japanese.

  • @adamcluck calm down with that shit

  • @adamcluck dont hate on Kai

  • @adamcluck No Offence but maybe he likes to do it that way if you like it another way it doesn't mean everyone is gonna like it too!! god people sometime don't thing

  • Good recipe but your dish is more chinese than japanese one ... To make real japanese tempura, check cookingwithdog or runnyrunny999's recipe it could be better ;)

  • no egg in the batter then?

  • it's cool that you warn people about safety as well as teaching a recipe :). my mom told me the same thing about the handle of pots or pans, i didn't really think anything of it, but one day i got into a near accident because of that handle. so yeah, better be safe than sorry. awesome vid btw :D

  • that looks sooooooo GOOD

  • 2:39 What is Venigar? =)))

  • @NicooleeeBanty Vinegar

  • @NicooleeeBanty it's broken english for vinegar lol

  • Flat them out like butterflies :)

  • too bad he's married :p , i would have took him

  • yum!

  • Would this same batter recipe work on chicken as well?

  • Do you throw away the oil after?

    that would be a waste..

  • @oldschoolappel probably not because u can use the oil again.

  • @llFLYFFBLADEll ok thanks!

    but where do u keep it ? and what oil?:)

  • @oldschoolappel ah.. any kind of oil :D and after u use it, u can put the oil in the clean jar. ^.^ I cooked Shrimp Tempura before and i luv it :)

  • @llFLYFFBLADEll THANKYOU =B =3

  • @oldschoolappel your welcome :D

  • 2:16 woah they look like rodents

  • jesus christ that looks amazing

  • instead of water......what about eggs, is that good too??

  • Use fresh prawns

  • not a bad tempura but traditionally they would use panko bread crumb

  • sick intro, very 1985 xD.

  • @chrysillo just like an episode of wok with yan!

  • Thanks so much sir! That sauce was pro!

  • Cooking with dog needs to show us!

  • Comment removed

  • Yummmm

  • Drooooools

  • oke, u wan use whi' shrimp oke? :D !!!

  • What's up with his english?

  • @fulcrum1102 He's Chinese...

  • @junnie2323 Chinese making Japanese Tempura? LOL

  • @macherielle It's not impossible is it? >.>

  • @junnie2323

    Lol I realized recently that I as an American don't really think about other countries interacting with one another, only with us.

  • terrible

  • i love his accent it is so cute! lol

  • not authentic

  • Nice job on the sauce-from fellow chef!

  • Kai, I wish you were my next door neighbor!

  • made this today.. and they turned out perfect..used some panko bread crumbs after battering the shrimp and they were very good..will make them again and again!!!!!

  • Contrast this instructional video with mine on how to make "Tempura Shrimp with Cats" at 88beautifulgirls@youtube.com

  • i wanna eat my computer.....

  • @alex45543 lol

  • @alex45543 i have a cucumber tempura for you to eat :O

  • I love this man.

  • hey I remember you! You did the teriyaki, thanks kai keep doing what you're doing

  • just made this! :) After following the ingredients, the batter turned more like dough so i added about 3/4 cups more to make it more battery.

    Also, the sauce is VERY good! :) I loved it overall and so did my family :)

    At first when my brothers heard curry powder they were all like 'oh my gosh dont turn this fobby >w< (im of indian origin) but then they came downstairs and were like, "this smells Sooo good! Nothing in our house smelled as good as this"

    :D

  • Finally some japanese kitchen, couldn't wait for you to make some!

  • i would subscribe to you if it wasnt so zoomed in, but your not so i wont.

  • oh man my calamari is rnr to this :D check it out hehe. drunk calamariiii, i mean im drunk, not calamari

  • What did he say?????? kkkkkkkk

  • Hija

    I have a question-is the tempura You did dosnt need egg aswell?

    Also I really love salmon skin in sushi-can You tell me if I can fride salmon skin in oil without tempura?

    Thank You :)

  • At 2:10, it looks as if mega sperm are being dunked into high temperature oil.

  • can you use cooked shrimp for tempura??

  • All the food you make looks so yummy. I always get hungry after watching your videos.

  • Thanks a bunch man. Gonna make this at some point this week :P

    Simple but tasty :)

  • haha its soo cute how you always say "enjoy" and the way u say it!! x3 keep cooking

  • Why do Asians always say "shrimps" instead of just shrimp?

  • @warrkrymez koreans add s to stuff too. my korean roommate explained to me that it's because of how they learn the american language, they associate everything plural with "s" because they don't know the exceptions to the rule where shrimp can mean more than one shrimp just like makeup can mean more than one piece of makeup.

  • i love you dude it is so delicous! :]

  • What the fag is this , you should coat it with batter and coat it with bread crumbs , and deep fry it , and you forget to add an eggs too

  • @TanJianWei92 Tempura is a light, eggless batter. It never has breadcrumbs on top either.

  • @TanJianWei92

    this is tempura not breaded shrimp.

  • When making this should I use dark Soy Sauce or light Soy Sauce?

  • @erastpetrovichfandor I've done it with crab. It's delicious, use king crab meat and powder it with flour / starch before you dip it in the batter, this will help keep the meat together.

  • u make it differently. why don't u put egg with the batter?

  • @mashi384

    because the title of the video is not breaded shrimp

  • Shrimps!

  • the batter looks different from the one he prepared the color become yellowish and texture was more creamier???

  • @22oozy When you leave the tempura batter to set for a while, the texture will automatically become creamy and yellowish looking

  • yummy

  • f this

  • just gradually spilling the water...

  • more of like camaron rebosado. not tempura.

  • looks great. am gonna try your recepie.!

  • How many minutes does it take for the batter to be ready?

  • Clean your oven.  Digusting.

  • What type of oil???

  • that looks great. i want to make it now. haha

  • i like the angles you put those tempuras in at the end, you cook very well!

  • hi.. i like the recipe but why the batter looked yellow when ready to use? did you add egg?

  • What's the use of baking powder? does it really make a difference?

    Cause it was found in the 19 century and before that it was never used in tempura batter!

    Another question. I always fail making a light coat, it always turns heavy after frying. I don't know how restaurants make them :S

    a

    Thanks BTW

  • yummmy.. looks so good, but I always eat it with spicy mayo though.. :)

  • i never get this right man, there's something wrong with how i do it, i tried, but the oil started rising, and the oil hit the element and started a fire, i think it rised cause of the baking soda, maybe i put too much, and also, i'm not using cornstarch, is that a problem, and i never get it cooked right, maybe i have to have the temperature higher?

  • @ifartwell

    It made really good batter for onion rings. I used AP Flour and not rice flour and I used Club Soda instead of water. Why? Ive learned that the more bubbles you add to a batter, the crispier the batter will be because the bubbles add layers.

    So yea, give it a go. Oh, the batter will stick to the onions more if you dust your onion rings in a little flour before your batter them.

  • that batter looks perfect for onion rings... I think I shall try it out.

  • tempura is just a word used to describe anything coated in batter, so anything can be used and it would still be called tempura.

    it looks goooooooddddd! =]

  • i think it today.. its good and crispy..thanks for your help!!!

  • I thought tempura batter was 1cp Sifted Flour, 1cp Ice Water, and 1 egg. Barely mixed with lumps still in. If you over mix you get the chewy batter not the light airy one.

  • that's exacly right. This is why other asian cultures shouldn't make tempura, it's always too heavy.

  • It's not tempura LOL!

  • you can trow everything in tempura if you want.....in my kitchen whe use salmon and it is extremely good!!

  • I don't get it, is there another method to make Tempura? I thought there was a use of eggs, I also expected it to be white / flaky.

  • I think u are thinkin of panko.

  • coconut milk, huh?....

  • Thank you sir. Do you know how to prepare the sauce served with the tempura in most Japanese restaurants?

  • Comment removed

  • lol when you fried them it looks like small mices

  • I am about to eat it now its in the oven its soooo good.

  • Joe satriani in the backgrownd . Nice

  • I think it taste more good with breadcrumbs

  • man that looks good. i'm gonna have to try this out. thanks.

  • it doesn't look the same

  • batter should have egg and shrip should be floured before batter

  • Comment removed

  • I love tempura! It's my favorite Japanese dish besides Miso Soup. I like my tempura with large shrimp though

  • I plan on making this (with some cheap Texas shrimp! lol) and using some leftover sweet and sour sauce that I have from some takeout to dip! I can't wait. lol

  • LOL!!! Oh man! That is so cheap YET effective! I think I'll try your method too!

  • its a cheap alternative but sounds promising at the same time tho.. haha

  • OMG This sounds soooo good. I can't wait to try it this weekend!  Thank you for the video!!

  • Omg, I made this last night and my whole family really enjoyed it. THANKS, it was the best shrimp EVER! :D

  • Interesting. I cook mine differently using a flour rub before the tempura batter mix.

    I also use panko bread crumbs for that extra crunch.

  • why u added baking powder?

  • but it isn't the fluffy tempera that is in the sushi places :(

  • probably because not everyone has a deep fryer.

  • Delicious, just like all your posts. Keep up the great work Itkman.

  • deliciously done...

  • Tempura is one of my favorite japanese food.

  • Man this look so delicious need to try to make it tomorrow!

  • OMG YUMMMMSSSSS

    GIMME!

  • Wow, you always make such tasty-looking dishes! And you are really good with explaining. I liked the tip to keep the handel of the wok-pan turned in. You're a really great cook, I learn a lot from your videos!

    I bought pre-made TEMPURA-batter mix. Will it be ok to use?

    -- Lena from Norway

  • @narutofangurl doesnt really matter but if u use pre made or the one u make . 2 me it is better to make it ur self because u know what u put in it

  • @narutofangurl

    Mine look white not brown. They would have burned if i kept them longer in the oil. Also, i don't know how to determine how hot the oil is =[

  • @Robyn923b To determine how hot the oil is, simply drop a little drop of the tempura batter into the oil. If the batter immediately starts sizzling, and the oil is slightly creasing on the surface, it's ready. The key to getting the tempura golden brown is to turn them around every once and a while during the frying time.

  • @Robyn923b are you dumb? dude its called a thermometer that have been around for sooo long lol

  • @mmiguy2306 You go ahead and stick a glass thermometer with mercury inside in oil and see what happens. We'll hear about you on the news if you do.

  • @Robyn923b wow your pretty ignorant bro lol

  • @Robyn923b Haha the "glass thermometers with mercury inside" are mostly used in the medical field. You use bi-metallic stem thermometers (cooking thermometers) to measure the temperature of most food.

  • @Robyn923b if youre really concerned to know how hot the oil is while making this, put a dot of the batter in the frying pan right when you turn the heat on to heat up the oil before you start frying. youll know when the oil is ready to be used when you see little bubbles surrounding the little dot. I hope that helps! :)

    These were delicious!

  • very nice

  • what happened to the video?

  • What VDO?

  • This one for the shrimp tempura. It says its no longer available

  • try refreshing the page, sometimes that happens to youtube videos and refreshing the page fixes it.

  • Oh ok thank you

  • whoa this is my favorite japanese food. thanks for sharing an easy way to make it. also can use Panko it's japanese bread crumbs in the batter

    ty for the tip of putting the pan handle inside cause my kitchens small and I'm likely the one to knock it over when i'm cooking. youch!

  • you fry much^^

  • makes some powder with hot spice mix shove some of those tiger shrimps and fry. Then stir-fry it wilth alot of peppers and green onions.

  • Wow that looks gorgeous. yummy

  • looks yummy

  • Fast Fact: Tempura was introduced to Japan in the mid-sixteenth century by early Portuguese missionaries and traders.

  • Oh wow, that looks delicious! I'll definitely try making that!

  • batter is Different from my tempura. Rice Flour? mine is only ALF&Cornstarch no baking powder. bp make the tempura chewy. try to make w/ eggyolks,water,pinch of salt.afl&cornstarch.

    ;-) thnks..

  • ginger is the most disgusting thing i've ever tasted in my life, so i'm gonna not add that.

  • You may have used it the wrong way. Pickled ginger is disgusting but I like fresh ginger brewed in with my black tea.

  • Everyone has different taste. I personally love ginger.

  • looks good

  • I'll be making this for sure! Many thanks Kai!

  • That one I am going to cook. I just need to get the stuff. There is one thing that goes fast in this house. Any food with shrimp in it. Thank you with all are hearts for sharing this recipe with us. You are the best my friend. I hope you share your amazing cooking skills forever. I would like to send good wishes to your family.You are amazing. Have a great weekend and I can not wait to see and learn more. God bless you and your family. THIS WAS THE BEST!

  • looks great, thanks!

  • LOOKS SO GOOD!

  • Thank you it looks delicious

  • Looks good

  • Magnificent! Thanks Kai. I'm going to do this next weekend.

  • The batter is white and then suddenly it turn yellow (you add egg?)...

  • when you fry a flour batter, it always turns yellow, no egg necessary.

  • I am not talking about after frying, look at 1:09 and 1:30, unless I am color blind, tell me that does not look different.

  • hmm, you're right. dunno, i don't typically fry my food. i figure that if he had added an egg, he would have said so.

  • i think it might be the lighting

  • I think its just the lightning

  • Thank you. ARTEMISL

  • I didn't added egg, But I did added 1/4 cup of flour. because it not thicken enough as I want to. Can you tell when I pulled up the shrimp after it has been dipped. It still white.

  • @hihikatamari it's just the lightning... i watched it one time and i can see the yellow and white light.

    1:09 - there is white light

    1:30 there is yellow light..

  • ooo looks great!! that can be served as a superbowl snack!

  • Evaporated milk is the best substitute for coconut milk I've found just in case anyone else couldn't find coconut milk or like me you're just not into making your own.

  • nice one kai, I thought you would make a tampura sauce with Hoisin sauce. But to my shock, you busted out Coconut and CURRY!!!! I bet you this would rock, I admire your recipes man, my family love what I cook and they came from you!!

  • nice vid yet again!

  • YUMMY! That sauce looks delicious too.

  • Thanks Kai, I love Shrimp Tempura!! :DDD

  • Delicious.
