Tempura shrimp with Japanese curry

For this dinner I used the SeaPak Tempura Shrimp product. The interior shrimp is overpowered by the overall tempura (which is great) so I wanted to bring more flavor to the plate.

For that I employed House Foods Kokumaro Curry, which I absolutely adore. I simply cooked a few veggies in the curry sauce and served with some long grain rice and thinly julienned radish for a little bite.

The tempura shrimp was cooked quickly at high heat in the air fryer with a little Maruso soy sauce to add some sweetness.
