Hello friends, welcome back to my channel.
My today's recipe is a Korean dish known as Korean
Fried Chicken the chicken in this dish has a crispy
outer coating with a thick spicy , sweet sauce.
So let's look into the ingredient list now. My first
ingredient is of course chicken and here I have
Boneless thigh chicken a kilo and I have cut them
into small one inch size pieces, 1/2 cup of cornflour,
1/2 cup of all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup of
rice flour.
And here I have one teaspoon of ginger powder 1
teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of red chilli powder
1/2 teaspoon of black pepper powder, and of course some
salt , to taste.
To prepare the sauce.
We need 2 tablespoons of garlic chopped, 1/2 cup of
tomato ketchup, 2 teaspoons of soy sauce.
And today I am using the light soy sauce . 2 teaspoons
of apple cider vinegar, but if you don't have it,
you can use the regular one also. And this is
a Korean hot pepper paste known as gochujang and I
am using 1/2 cup of it equivalent.
to my Ketchup, 2 teaspoon of honey, but if you
don't want honey, you can use some sugar also. Around
2 teaspoon of sesame oil for cooking and some sesame
seeds for garnishing and here I have one cup of
chicken stock.
So to start off here is my rice flour and
I'll add in around half cup of water to the
rice flour and make a thick.
batter out of it.
So this is the rice flour mixture.
You can see it is not very runny pretty thick
batter.
And we are going to add this to the chicken
along with the spices first goes in the garlic powder,
ginger powder , some salt to taste red chilli powder, black
pepper powder and the rice flour mixture.
And we'll mix all the ingredients well with our hands
and here are my chicken pieces all well coated and
I let it rest for 10 minutes.
My chicken has been sitting for around 10 minutes now,
and now we'll prepare the coating before frying the chicken.
For that.
I'll add in the corn flour and all-purpose flour together
in a plate.
Give it a good mix
together.
And now I'm going to take individual pieces of chicken
and coat them
in this mixture well
This will actually give a very nice and crispy coating
for our chickens.
Dust of the extra flour mixture.
So here are my chicken pieces all well coated and
now it's ready to be fried.
So we'll move on to the gas stove
now.
I've already added oil in a frying pan to deep
fry my chicken pieces and to check if my oil is
ready or not ,I will insert this toothpick and if you
can see there are some bubbles forming around the toothpick
that means my oil has the perfect temperature to
fry my chicken pieces.
So I will add in the pieces now and since today we
are using boneless chicken pieces.
It won't take too long to fry.
It's been around 2 minutes now and I'm going to
flip the chicken pieces and today I will be frying my chicken
pieces twice so that they get a very crispy outer
coating, so we won't brown them right now.
We'll put this chicken pieces for another 2-3 minutes.
It's been another three minutes now, and I'm going to
remove the chicken pieces
in a kitchen towel and I'll continue with the rest
of my chicken pieces now.
While the chickens are frying will start preparing the sauce
for the
chicken and I'm adding 2 teaspoons
of sesame oil. My oil is hot now and to
it I am going to add in the chopped garlic
We will cook the garlic for a minute or two.
As you can see the garlic has started turning slightly
brownish in color at this point.
We'll add in all the sauces . First goes in
the ketchup,
soy sauce,
apple cider vinegar, next goes in the gochujong
which is the Korean hot pepper paste.
This is easily available in any kind of Asian
grocery stores and if you can't
find it
at all you can use some red chili paste.
Mix it well.
I will add in the chicken stock.
along with the honey.
Mix it well, and we allow this to come to
a boil.
My sauce has been cooking for around 5 minutes now
and you can see this is the consistency we want
and it is ready.
So I'm going to switch off the gas and start
with the double frying of the chicken now.
So here are my chicken pieces which are fried once
and now I am going to fry them again.
This time we will cook it for another.
five minutes.
or till they're nice and golden brown in colour? It's
been 5 minutes now and you can see they are
nice and golden in colour and there's a lot of
crunch in them also, so I'm going to remove it
from heat now.
So here is my fried chicken and the Korean sauce.
The only last thing that is left is we have
to mix them together.
So what I'll do is I'll pour the sauce over
my chicken pieces here.
If you want you can individually brush them with the
sauce also.
And I will add in more sauce.
Try to coat all the pieces well with the sauce.
So here is my Korean fried chicken ready and I
have garnished it with a little bit of sesame seed
and some spring onion greens.
My Korean fried chicken is ready and friends.
I bet if you eat one, you just can't stop
with it.
