Tips:

  • Use high-quality ice cream. The better the ice cream, the better the tempura-fried ice cream will be.
  • Freeze the ice cream scoops for at least 2 hours before frying. This will help them hold their shape when they are fried.
  • Use a light batter. A heavy batter will make the tempura-fried ice cream greasy.
  • Fry the ice cream in hot oil. This will help the batter cook quickly and prevent the ice cream from melting.
  • Serve the tempura-fried ice cream immediately. It is best enjoyed when it is hot and crispy.
