It is served either in a bento box (lunch box) with soba or udon, or, with dipping sauce like tentsuyu sauce (three parts dashi, one part mirin and one part shoyu).

Steps to make Tempura:
- Skin off eggplant and cut it into length wise. Skin off carrot and cut it into strips (not too thick) or whatever shape you prefer. Take seeds out of bell pepper and cut it into wide strips. Peel off onion and slice it. Cut broccoli into small pieces. Deshell prawns.
- Whisk 1 cup flour with baking soda and corn flour. Crack egg into a bowl and beat it very well then add cold water and mix it.
- Put 1/2 egg and water into the flour mixture and blend it well. Then add remaining of the liquid to the flour and mix it very well. If mixture is lumpy, that's fine.
- In a deep fry pan, pour oil over high heat. Then drop batter into the oil, if it is coming up, oil gets ready. Dip one of your vegetables into the batter, drain for 2-3 seconds in the bowl, and then add it to the hot oil. Fry 3-4 pieces at a time. Let each piece fry for 2-3 minutes (or until is crispy).
- Repeat dipping of vegetables and frying them.
