1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornmeal
1 tbsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 egg white, lightly beaten
½ cup ice water

In a bowl, mix together first 5 ingredients. Stir in the lightly beaten egg whites just until blended, but do not beat.

Dip chilled tender vegetables (pre-cook veggies that take longer than a few minutes to cook) or steam-cooked meats or fish and fry quickly in hot (375°F) vegetable oil until golden brown.

Remove from oil using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season to taste with fine salt or sea salt.
