Step By Step

Instructions

1
Mix flour, tapioca starch, baking powder, cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon rice flour in a bowl.
2
Add chilled soda water a bit at a time until you have the consistency of a thin pancake or crepe batter.
3
In a deep saucepot, heat 2 inches of canola oil to 350°F.
4
Dip pieces of lobster (and vegetables if using) into the remaining rice flour and shake off any excess. Then dip them into the tempura batter.
5
Place the battered pieces carefully into the hot oil. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan (6-8 pieces at a time). Fry until golden brown, flipping the tempura once or twice with a spoon.
6
Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.
7
Serve with ponzu sauce or dressing of your choice.
