Serious answer? Real tempura fried with panko.

No panko is not tempura. It's just fried stuff.

different word

Tempura is a typical Japanese dish that was originally introduced to Japan by the Portuguese in Nagasaki through fritter-cooking techniques during the 16th century. The dish usually consists of seafood, meat and vegetables that have been battered and deep fried.

Nugget is definitely not tempura. I categorize tempura as the coating system. You can have a tempura coated nugget, tempura coated brinjal but nugget itself is just a small piece of something (meat, gold?).

2 completely different things

Make it simple. Tempura nuggets have hard smoother shell.



The normal nuggets is breaded and has coarser texture.



But both can have same shape & type of meat inside.

only breaded type can come out crunchy with air fryer, tempura type not nice if use air fryer.

deep fry with panko is called Furai

apa tempura you makan until got panko? must be some bastardized angmo shit again like crispy rendang

Correct. But breaded goes limp faster than breaded one if left out too long after frying.

Dem ur pic.
Ayam been craving to eat nugget but aint gonna pay rm10 for 4 pcs... huhuhu

Hmm, must be my mistake than... My bad...

I think it's due to air-fried no extra oil to keep the moisture in air away from the crunchy food. Oil fried food, the oil will keep the moisture away hence the longer lasting crunchiness.
