HOW TO COOK TEMPURA

I love Japanese foods. One of my favs is the Tempura. I love its crispy batter and the taste of the shrimp. I had my first Tempura experience when I was in college. I liked it so I came up with the idea of cooking it for myself, so I conducted research about how to cook it. I made my very first tempura and my mom liked it. Since then, we used to cook Tempura whenever there was a party or occasion in our home. I am gona share with you my recipe.
