Slice the tempeh into thin pieces, approximately 5 mm thick, and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, rice flour, garlic powder, turmeric powder, salt, and white pepper. Mix well.
Gradually add water into the dry mixture while whisking to create a smooth, lump-free batter. The batter should be slightly thick but pourable.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a few sprays of non-stick cooking spray.
Dip each piece of tempeh into the batter, ensuring it is evenly coated, and allow any excess batter to drip off.
Place the coated tempeh pieces onto the preheated skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
Repeat cooking in batches, re-spraying the skillet with cooking spray as needed to maintain minimal oil usage.
Once cooked, transfer the tempeh to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess moisture.
Serve the Low Fat Tempe Goreng Tepung warm with your favorite dipping sauce or as a side dish.
