Ingredients
To make salted egg chicken, you'll need the following ingredients: - 500g chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces - 2 salted egg yolks, mashed - 1/2 cup all-purpose flour - 1/2 cup cornstarch - 1 tsp baking powder - 1/2 tsp salt - 1/4 tsp white pepper - 1/4 cup milk - 1 egg - Oil for frying
Step 1: Marinate the chicken
In a bowl, mix together the chicken, salt, and white pepper. Set it aside for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 2: Coat the chicken in batter
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, milk, and egg to make a batter. Dip each piece of chicken into the batter, making sure it's fully coated.
Step 3: Fry the chicken
Heat up some oil in a wok or deep-fryer. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the chicken pieces into the oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Set the fried chicken aside on a paper towel to drain.
Step 4: Make the salted egg sauce
In a small saucepan, heat up some oil and fry the mashed salted egg yolks until fragrant. Add in 1/4 cup of water and stir until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
Step 5: Combine the chicken and sauce
Add the fried chicken into the salted egg sauce and toss until each piece is coated evenly.
Tips
- For extra crunch, you can add some chopped cashew nuts or fried garlic to the dish. - If you don't have salted egg yolks, you can substitute with regular egg yolks and add a bit of salt to the sauce. - Make sure to drain the fried chicken well on a paper towel to prevent it from becoming too oily.
