wow, I made some low carb tempura

[popeye_w]

... it was really good!!!

Here's how I did it (sorry if someone else has posted this same thing already)

1/4 cup plain protein powder (i use only the whey protein)

1 egg

old bay seasoning to taste.

Then, I got a pound of prawns, dipped them in the "batter" and then dropped then in the deep fryer.... close enough to the real thing for me!

Next time, I'm going to try adding some baking powder, I read someplace that it will help the coating to "puff up". :thup:

sounds good, any carbs in the powder?

it's about a gram per tablespoon, so probably 4-5 grams for the entire recipe... and to tell the truth, quite a lot is left behind after you've finished dipping.
