A delicious combination of tempura and donburi - hence the name tendon - this classic Japanese one-bowl meal consists of battered and deep-fried seafood or vegetables laid over freshly steamed rice. The most popular ingredients for tendon include ebi or shrimps, which can be found in virtually all tempura dishes, and Japanese eggplant called nasu , but also other vegetables such as daikon radish and kabocha squash. Tendon is usually drizzled with the umami-imparting tentsuyu , a savory tempura sauce made with dashi soup stock and a mixture of soy sauce, mirin, and sugar called kaeshi . Alternatively, to make your tendon bowl look even more appetizing, the tempura pieces can be separately dipped in any dashi or soy-based sauce before being neatly arranged on top of a steamy bed of rice. In Japan, tendon dishes are most often enjoyed for lunch or as a light evening meal.
