     Title: Dirty Dave's Sort-Of Tempura Batter
Categories: Five, Breads, Deep-fry
     Yield: 7 Servings

     5 tb All-purpose flour
     3 c  Aunt Jemima's Deluxe easy
          - pour pancake batter mix
   1/4 ts Baking soda
 3 1/2 c  Club soda; room temp
 1 1/2 c  Water

 I first made this batter for a house party. I don't
 remember where I swiped the recipe from - but, it's
 mine now. Works well if you substitute beer for the
 water, too.

 Combine the flour pancake mix and baking soda in a
 deep bowl. Stirring constantly with a whisk or spoon
 pour in the club soda and water in a slow stream and
 continue to stir until the mixture is a smooth thin
 cream.

 Strain the batter through a fine sieve set over a
 clean bowl pressing down hard on any lumps with the
 back of a large spoon.

 Dip vegetables, shrimp, etc. in batter and drop into
 the deep-fryer or fondue pot with oil at 350°F-375°F.
 (175°C-190°C)

 Cook until batter is a nice golden brown and crispy.
