Instructions
Prepare the Vegetables:
Trim the asparagus.
Cut the broccoli into florets.
Cut the carrot into ¼-inch slices on a slight diagonal.
Separate the oyster mushrooms if necessary.
Prepare the Batter:
In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour and fine salt.
In a separate jug, whisk together the egg, sriracha sauce, and chilled sparkling water.
Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and whisk until just combined.
Preheat the Air Fryer:
Preheat your 5- or 6-quart air fryer to 350°F for 3 minutes.
Prepare the Bread Crumb Mixture:
Place the panko bread crumbs in a separate bowl.
Drizzle a bit of extra virgin olive oil over the bread crumbs.
Using your fingertips, rub the oil into the crumbs until they are well combined.
Coat and Cook the Vegetables:
Working with one vegetable piece at a time, dip it into the batter, allowing excess to drip off.
Coat the vegetable in the bread crumb mixture.
Place the coated vegetable on a tray lined with parchment paper.
Continue coating until you have 6-8 vegetable pieces ready to cook.
Air Fry the Vegetable Tempura:
Carefully pull out the air fryer pan and basket and place the coated vegetables in the basket in a single layer.
Slide the pan and basket back into the appliance.
Keep the temperature set at 350°F and set the timer for 5 minutes.
Cook the vegetables, turning them halfway through the cooking time, or until they are golden brown.
Transfer the vegetable tempura to a wire rack placed over a tray.
Repeat Coating and Cooking:
Repeat the coating and cooking process with the remaining vegetable pieces in four more batches.
Serve the Vegetable Tempura:
Serve the vegetable tempura with soy sauce and sprinkled with finely chopped red chile and toasted sesame seeds.
