Tenkasu & Tempura Recipe Assistance

Hi there. I am currently trying to find recipes to make sushi that has Tenkasu (bits of tempura) embedded within the sushi itself. I can't find any local asian grocers that have this product in stock, so I figured I'd make it myself. But I'd like to know if anyone can recommend me a process in making this. While we are at it, does anyone have any GOOD tempura batter recipes?

Thanks in advance for anyone who can assist me on this.

make a regular tempura batter(i use various beer with cornstarch and a little bit of flour) for the tempura bits add a little water to loosen the tempura batter and pour slowly into a deep fryer it will form almost a layer of tempura. break the layer up with a spider and put in a perforated pan to let the oil drain. when it is not hot you can break them into little bits.. this is how we do it for our sushi rolls at my restaurant..
secret is my opinion is to keep it very cold and carbonated..we use beer for the carbonation and a little extra flavor plus its golden effect on the final product
