Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and flour until evenly combined.
  2. Pour in the warm beer and stir gently until just combined; do not overmix, as lumps are fine for a lighter batter.
  3. Season the batter with salt and white pepper to taste.
  4. Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to 340°F (170°C).
  5. Pat the lobster tail pieces dry with paper towels to ensure the batter adheres properly.
  6. Dip each lobster piece into the tempura batter, coating evenly.
  7. Carefully lower the battered lobster into the hot oil and fry for 1.5 to 2 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
  8. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a wire rack set over a sheet pan.
  9. Serve immediately with the spicy mustard sauce for dipping.
