Camaron Rebosado the Philippine Tempura
We are familiar with the Japanese Tempura but in our country we have our own version. A clash of cultures and influence that brought about this recipe. Prepared in a Chinese way and has a name in Spanish which means shrimp overflow. A dish which is uniquely Filipino.
Camaron Rebosado
Popular in Filipino restaurants this dish sometime can be found in some Chinese restaurants as well. A simple dish to prepare with a dip made of sweet and sour sauce will make you ask for more after every bite. A perfect combination with fried rice it will sure make you forget about your diet.
Recipe
Easy to prepare and any type of shrimp would do.
Ingredients:
Shrimp - Depends on you how much you could consume
Calamansi - Our local lemon or lime
Egg - You can use one but I use two
Salt - A teaspoon would do and you could sprinkle it like Salt Bae
Flour or Cornstarch - Some use both but I just use cornstarch same result in my observation
Oil - Of course as you would need to deep fry it.
Procedure:
- Leaving the tails remove the shells of the shrimp. It's up to you if you would like to remove the veins from the back.
- Mix the shrimp, calamansi and salt together
- For the batter mix the egg, cornstarch and add a little water as needed.
- Coat the shrimps with the batter leaving the tail without coating.
- Heat up the oil and deep fry the shrimp. Make sure not to over cook around 3 minutes tops should do.
- Remove from the oil and removing the excess oil by letting it set on paper napkins.
Sauce
You could just go out and buy a bottle of sweet and sour sauce or just use ketchup
But if you insist of making your own.
Ingredients:
- Vinegar - Don't use too much
- Ketchup - It's ok if you use too much
- Soy Sauce - Just a table spoon would do. It's just for color and also a salt substitute
- Brown Sugar - Use a lot which depends on you
- Cornstarch - Use one spoonful and just add as needed for a thick texture
Procedure:
Now mix all the ingredients together and taste it. Just add a little bit of everything to fine tune it to your taste. You would know if you are satisfied taste it.
Heat up a sauce pan and pour in the sauce. Stir clockwise it is important because I said so.........that's a joke.
Now wait for it to thicken and enjoy.
Eat it with yourself or share with someone if you are not greedy. Don't forget the beer. Cheers!
