Cut the yellow onion, carrot, zucchini, and scallions into thin strips.
Mix the vegetables with half of the salt, let stand for 5 minutes, and remove excess moisture.
Briefly mix the flour, cornstarch, remaining salt, and iced soda water.
Add the vegetables to the batter and form small clusters with a spoon.
Heat the vegetable oil to 170°C and fry the kakiage pieces for 4 minutes.
Mix the soy sauce and lemon juice.
Drain the kakiage on paper for 2 minutes and serve with the dipping sauce.
💡 Tip: Do not drown the vegetables in batter; when they are only coated in a thin film, they stay crisp without separating during frying.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve kakiage hot with optional soy-lemon dipping sauce and plain rice for a light meal.
