Cooking Challenge: Making Healthy and Delicious Tempura Vegetables

The challenge is to make a healthy, planet-friendly, and delicious meal. The recipe involves making tempura vegetables, which are coated in a light and crispy batter. The vegetables of choice are aubergine, carrot, courgette, and purple sprouts in broccoli. The batter is made using self-raising flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt, and soda water. The vegetables are thinly sliced, coated in the batter, and deep-fried until golden and crispy. The result is a tasty and visually appealing dish that ticks the boxes for both flavor and sustainability.
