We recently went out to a Japanese restaurant. "Mom, you need to make this for us", my choir sang. Challenge accepted, off to the kitchen in search of my Japanese cookbooks. Recipes needed include - chicken teriyaki, tempura and vegetable rolls.
Well I messed up this recipe but the results were spectacular. A make again with thumbs up given after the first bite as well as fighting for the left overs before dinner was over.
