Fried dishes are hard to resist. Well, one of the fried foods that is popular with many people is tempeh mendoan. Apart from being delicious consumed directly, mendoan tempeh is also suitable as a side dish to accompany white rice.
Usually, some people use wheat flour as the main ingredient for their tempeh mendo dough. Don't forget to include various additional spices too. Unfortunately, sometimes the mendoan tempeh produced is not optimally crispy. Not to mention, the texture becomes soft because it absorbs a lot of oil.
As a solution, you can copy the recipe and tutorial for frying mendoan tempeh shown by YouTube user Desy Ayu Channel. In his video upload, this netizen appears to have replaced wheat with another type of flour. Reported by BrilioFood from the YouTube Desy Ayu Channel on Tuesday (9/7), one type of flour used is white sticky rice flour. Are you curious about the results? Check out the review below.

Dip the tempeh slices into the flour mixture that has been made. Back and forth so that the entire side of the tempeh is perfectly coated with flour batter.

Then put the tempeh into the hot cooking oil. Leave it and wait a few minutes until the bottom of the tempeh is dry. Once done, just turn the tempeh over so that it cooks evenly. Make sure the stove fire used is medium so that the mendoan tempeh doesn't burn.

Once the mendoan tempeh looks brown, immediately remove it using a strainer. Wait a while for the oil content to reduce.

Lastly, tempeh mendoan can be served directly on a plate. The outside of the mendoan tempeh looks perfectly crisp. When you split it with your hands, you can feel the tempeh mendoan not greasy.
