Camaron rebosado is deep-fried battered shrimp served with sweet and sour sauce. It is known as the Philippine version of tempura except tempura has a light batter and served with soy sauce. This style of cooking shrimp nearly resembles the Japanese tempura and shrimp croquettes; however, some ingredients and preparation steps vary.
