Abura kiri

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tempura nabe with abura kiri.

Abura kiri (油きり, Abura kiri^?) is a shallow tray used to place food after deep frying in the Japanese kitchen. The shallow tray or pan has a rack and an absorbent paper towel to remove excess oil from the food after frying, as for example in tempura.

The Abura kiri is usually used in combination with metal ended Japanese kitchen chopsticks, a net ladle or scoop ami shakushi, and a heavy frying pot agemono nabe.
