Air Fryer Shrimp Tempura Recipes

AIR FRYER SHRIMP TEMPURA

Steps:

• Preheat air fryer to 350 degrees.
• Prepare an egg wash by whisking together 2 large eggs and two teaspoons of water.
• Dredge shrimp in flour, shake off excess flour.
• Dip dredged shrimp into the egg wash and then roll in panko breadcrumbs.
• Cook for 7 to 9 minutes in the air fryer, or until done.

AIR FRYER FROZEN SHRIMP TEMPURA

Steps:

• Preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees Fahrenheit.
• When the air fryer is hot, add the frozen tempura shrimp to the air fryer tray. There shouldn't be any overlap so if you can't fit them all, make less or cook this amount in two batches.
• Cook the frozen shrimp for 11-14 minutes total until they are fully cooked through and lightly golden brown on the outside. Flip the shrimp halfway through. Some shrimps might come precooked but others are uncooked. In this case, make sure to fully cook them - the internal temperature needs to be 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Once cooked and crispy, remove the shrimp from the air fryer and serve with dipping sauce (often frozen shrimp tempura comes with one).

AIR FRYER SHRIMP TEMPURA

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, sherry, rice wine vinegar, oyster sauce, scallions, sugar, lemon juice, and ginger stir-in paste together in a small bowl. Set dipping sauce aside.
• Whisk egg, cornstarch, flour, and club soda together in a large bowl. Add shrimp and gently stir until shrimp are coated.
• Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions. Cut a piece of parchment to fit the basket of the air fryer and set aside.
• Lift shrimp by the tail from the batter using tongs and let excess batter run off. Place as many shrimp as you can on the reserved parchment paper without overcrowding and place into the basket of the air fryer. You will need to cook the shrimp in batches.
• Cook in the preheated air fryer until desired crispness, about 8 minutes. Repeat with remaining shrimp. Serve with reserved dipping sauce.

AIR-FRYER TEMPURA VEGGIES

Steps:

• Mix together flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a shallow dish. Whisk together eggs and water in another shallow dish. Stir together panko and oil in a third shallow dish. Add desired seasoning to either panko and/or flour mixture.
• Sprinkle vegetables with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Dip in flour mixture, then in egg mixture, and finally in panko mixture to coat.
• Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
• Arrange half of the vegetables in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with additional salt, if desired. Transfer vegetables to oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining vegetables.
