Tempura-fried ice cream » Plunging frozen ice cream into hot oil sounds wrong, but it tastes so right. A scoop of vanilla ice cream is dipped in tempura batter and fried until golden. It’s served with chocolate sauce, a bit of caramel and some mango puree for a crispy-on-the-outside, creamy-on-the-inside dessert.
