Dear Family & Friends
The sage plant in the herb garden have been giving us lots of leaves.We use it to flavour cooked meals and make herbal tea drinks too. Then, I searched for more ways that we can use them and found this recipe.

These are good...but I find it a bit fiddly...time consuming thing to do. I'm not very keen on deep frying food either, but it's worth a try!

Yes, the sage tempura didn't last long on the plate. After all, who wouldn't love a crispy tasty snack?
Hope you have a lovely day.
