Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Use ground meat with some fat content to ensure the filling stays moist and juicy after frying, not dry.
  • Adding a little cooking oil to the tempura batter helps create air pockets during frying, making it even crispier.
  • When first placing the batter-coated rolls into the oil, avoid moving them until the surface sets slightly to prevent the shape from breaking.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to try a unique and elegant style of eggplant dish.
  • Those looking for a Chinese-style fried dish with a thin, crispy exterior and a juicy meat filling.
