Ingredients

• For the frog legs

• 1 lb. of frog legs

• 1/2 cup of corn flour

Let’s make it

• Cut the legs in half, making 1 leg portions.
• Pat dry and rub with garlic. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Let’s make the batter
• Mix all the tempura batter ingredients together. Don’t over mix, small clumps are fine. If you will over mix, it will be hard rather then airy.
