Vegetable tempura is one way to dupe kids into eating vegetables. However, this recipe will take a lot of patience to make.

It’s every parents’ dream of seeing their kids munching radish or enjoying carrots. It’s like a fairytale come true witnessing kids munching of vegetables instead of junk foods.

However, 80% of kids didn’t like them.

Kids hate vegetables due to their taste buds. They have 300% more taste buds than adults. Therefore, they can taste bitterness stronger than adults do. Since they were infants, they are used to milk and will keep on looking for the sweet and creamy.

Instead of spoiling the meal by bargaining and forcing them to eat vegetables, why not trick them? You can dupe them into thinking that they were eating potato chips when in fact they were eating a radish.

Vegetable Tempura is one way. My recipe is composed of radish, carrots, bell pepper, green chilies, water spinach leaves and many more.
