Who can resist the deliciousness of tempe mendoan? This crispy and savory fried dish is not only delightful to eat on its own, but it also pairs well with white rice. However, often tempe mendoan fried with wheat flour becomes soggy and absorbs a lot of oil.

To tackle this issue, Desy Ayu Channel on YouTube offers an interesting solution. In her tutorial video, Desy demonstrates how to make super crispy tempe mendoan using glutinous rice flour as a substitute for wheat flour.

Here are the steps you can follow to achieve crispy and non-greasy tempe mendoan.

1. Preparing the Batter

Prepare a bowl and mix 7 tablespoons of glutinous rice flour with 1 chicken egg. Add 1 teaspoon of ground white pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of broth powder, salt to taste, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cumin, and 1 teaspoon of ground coriander. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.

2. Add Water and Green Onions

After that, pour 100 ml of water into the batter and add slices from 3 stalks of green onions. Stir again until the ingredients are evenly mixed.

3. Dip the Tempe

The prepared tempeh pieces are dipped into the flour batter until all surfaces are perfectly coated.

4. Frying

Heat the oil in a pan until it is hot enough. Add the tempe that has been coated with flour batter into the hot oil. Fry until the bottom of the tempe looks dry and golden brown, then flip the tempe to ensure both sides are cooked evenly. Use medium heat so that the tempe does not burn quickly.

5. Drain the Oil

Once the tempe mendoan is brown and crispy, lift it using a strainer and drain for a moment to let excess oil escape. The tempe mendoan is ready to be served. By using glutinous rice flour, the tempe mendoan will have a crispy texture on the outside but remain light and not oily.

6. Sauces that Pair Well with Tempe Mendoan

To perfect the deliciousness of tempe mendoan, dip it in sweet soy sauce or shrimp paste chili sauce. Here are two sauce options you can try:

1. Sweet Soy Sauce

Ingredients:

  • Sweet soy sauce
  • Bird's eye chili
  • Shallots
  • Garlic

  • Sugar

  2. Mix all the minced ingredients with sweet soy sauce.
  3. Add salt and sugar to taste.
  4. Stir well and the sweet soy sauce is ready to enjoy.

2. Shrimp Paste Chili Sauce

  • Garlic
  • Tomato

  • Salt
