Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Trim the ends of the green beans and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon cooking oil, sprinkle with fry seasoning and toss to coat. Roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
- While the green beans roast, cook the jasmine rice according to package directions. Fluff with a fork and keep warm.
- Prepare the dynamite sauce: In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and sweet Thai chili sauce. Squeeze in the juice of half the lime and stir until smooth. Set aside.
- Make the tempura batter: In a medium bowl, whisk the tempura batter mix with 1/2 cup ice-cold water until just combined (lumps are okay).
- Heat about 1 inch of cooking oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C).
- Dip the mushrooms into the tempura batter, letting excess drip off and carefully place them into the hot oil. Fry in batches until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels and season with salt immediately.
- To serve, divide the rice between bowls. Top with roasted green beans and tempura mushrooms. Drizzle with dynamite sauce and garnish with a lime wedge. Enjoy!
Recipe Tips
For extra crispy tempura, use ice-cold water in the batter and don’t overmix.
Keep the oil temperature steady; if it’s too hot, the batter will brown too quickly.
You can substitute green beans with asparagus or broccoli if desired.
FAQ
Can I use a different type of mushroom?
Yes, cremini or shiitake mushrooms work well in this recipe.
How do I make the dynamite sauce less spicy?
Reduce the amount of sweet Thai chili sauce or add a little more mayonnaise to tone down the heat.
Can I bake the tempura mushrooms instead of frying?
Baking won’t give the same crispy texture, but you can spray them with oil and bake at 425°F for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway.
