Do you like Indian food? I don’t think it would work for tempura, but you could make the Indian appetizer, pakoras from it. Normally the batter is made from chickpea flour. With some coconut and coriander chutney? Delish!
Make sure you check the carb counts on soy flour. The carb count varies depending on the type with the low fat ones having less carbs.
Pakora Batter
1 cup chickpea flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground turmeric
1/4 tsp, baking soda
1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
Put the chickpea flour in a bowl. Gradually add about 3/4 cup water until you have a batter thick enough to coat whatever vegetables you are using. You can also use this batter to coat fish.
For deep frying, I’ve always used just a cast iron pot, and since LC, I haven’t done much deep frying at all. Ask the members if they can give you a good recommendation for a deep fryer. I also don’t bread things, but other members swear by dipping in egg then ground almonds, or ground almonds mixed with Parmesan cheese than baking.
