"Tempe" Crackers aka Tempe Kerepek


I'm so craving some to munch and I have this recipe given by my Indonesian friend a year ago and now I decided to have a homemade "tempe" crackers.  When giant supermarket yesterday to look for tempe & found but not the one that am looking for.  However, this will do as it's a trial version.  So, this morning I began my experiment & it's worth my effort as it's turn out to be like the stall selling.  The next time around, I'll go to Geylang to look for square "tempe" & sliced them very thin since I have a meat slicer.....

Ingredients:
200g Tempe ~ thinly sliced
100g Rice flour
1 tbsp Tapioca flour or cornstarch
1 large egg
200ml water
Oil for deep fry

Blended:
½ tsp coriander seed
3 cloves garlic
2 candlenuts (buah keras)
¼ tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp salt
2 lime leaves

Directions:
  1. Make the batter: Mix the blended ingredient with all the flours, egg & water to smooth batter.
  2. Dip the “tempe” into the smooth batter & set aside for about 3 mins.
  3. Heat oil in a medium, deep fry till golden brown & crispy in batches.
  4. Cool the batches before storing them in an air-tight container.
