【Materials】 (For 2 people)
Corn…1/2 stalk (60 grams)
Firm Tofu…75 grams
Hanpen(square fishcake)…1/2 slice
Salt...a pinch
White Dashi…1/2 teaspoon
Potato strach…1 tablespoon
Vegetable Oil…as needed                                                                                                                    Shiso...as needed

Chigiri tempura made with corn and shiso

【How to make】
①Make a cut on the surface of the corn, then cut it in half and remove the kernels from the cob with a knife.
②Place a weight on top of firm tofu with kitchen paper and leave to drain.
③Put ② and hanpen in a food processor or cut them into thin strips. Then smooth them with a mortar and pestle, add salt and white dashi, and mix.
④Add the corn kernels from ①, potato starch and finely chopped shiso to ③ and mix well.
⑤Take a portion of ④ that fits in one fist, and fry in vegetable oil heated to 170 degrees until golden brown.

【Points】
I put corn in the chigiri tempura snacks. You can also fry and freeze it, so it's useful to make a large amount.
