Ingredients:

  • 20 male squash blossoms (or use some female with immature fruit attached)
  • 20 pieces jalapeno jack cheese (about 1/4 inch squared and 1/2 inch short of each blossom tip)
  • oil (for frying-you will want it about 1 1/2 inches deep)
  • 1/4-1/2 cup flour
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp salt

Directions:

  1. Rinse and drain blossoms-pat dry.
  2. stuff each flower with a piece of cheese and twist the ends to seal.
  3. Roll in flour.
  4. Dip in tempura batter Fry to a golden brown on all sides.
  5. Drain and eat hot.
  6. For Tempura: Mix all ingredients with a fork (I mix my dry ingredients first-then add water and eggs) Feel free to use cold beer in place of water-adds depth to the batter.
