Cooking Instructions

25 mins
  1. 1

    Cut the chicken meat into 5 cm cubes.

  2. 2

    Grate the garlic and ginger and mix with the ingredients for the seasoning.

  3. 3

    Mix the chicken breasts in the seasoning solution. You can use a freezer pack instead of a bowl. (You can also refrigerate it in this state).

  4. 4

    If there is too much liquid, throw it away.

  5. 5

    Add the potato starch and mix (you can do this in a plastic bag for convenience).

  6. 6

    Deep-fry in oil at 170°C. If you see small bubbles when you insert a dry chopstick, it is the right temperature for frying.

  7. 7

    Fry at a distance to avoid sticking together. Do not touch them as the batter will come off.

  8. 8

    When the frying sound changes and the batter is no longer soft, take it out. (About 4 minutes)

  9. 9

    Leave to rest for 2 to 3 minutes.

  10. 10

    Raise the temperature of the oil to 190°C and deep-fry the 9 again.

  11. 11

    Fry for 1 minute, turning several times to ensure even cooking. When the batter is brown, it's ready. Remove and drain the oil.
