Tips:
Tempura batter should be light and have a crisp coating that doesn't absorb oil when fried. To achieve that result you need to keep following tips in mind:
• Don't overmix your batter. If you over mixed it batter will become heavy.
• Use only chilled soda water. You can replace soda water with ice cold water but result will be slightly different.
• Preparing the batter ahead of time is not recommended. Mix the batter just before frying.
• Maintain a consistent temperature, if the temperature is too low, the batter will absorb oil and won't crisp up; too high, and it will burn.
• If you are frying both seafood and vegetables, try to fry vegetables first, then fry seafood.
