Veggie Tempura is a classic dish from Japanese cuisine, featuring a variety of fresh vegetables lightly coated in a delicate batter and deep-fried until crisp and golden. Common ingredients include sweet potatoes, zucchini, green beans, bell peppers, and mushrooms, offering a vibrant mix of flavors and textures. Traditionally served with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, mirin, and dashi, Veggie Tempura is enjoyed as an appetizer or side dish. While the vegetables provide essential vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber, the frying process adds extra calories and fat, making it less ideal for low-fat diets. However, tempura’s thin batter and high cooking temperature reduce oil absorption compared to heavier deep-fried dishes. Opting for fresh vegetables and pairing tempura with lighter fare can help balance its nutritional profile, making it an occasional indulgence within a well-rounded diet.
