Ingredients

  • 300 g Chicken Thighs
  • 2 tsp Light Soy Sauce
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp White Pepper
  • 1/4 tsp MSG
  • 1 Egg
  • Cornflour

Instructions

  1. 1

    Add the oil to a large pan and heat over a medium high heat.

  2. 2

    Cut the chicken in to bite size chungs, about 2cm by 2cm, and add to a mixing bowl.

  3. 3

    Add the marinade ingredients and mix well. Set aside for 15 minutes to marinate.

  4. 4

    After the meat has marinated, crack in the egg and mix well.

  5. 5

    Fill a large bowl with corn flour and add the chicken pieces in batches to toss and coat. Set aside into a sieve to remove excess flour.

  6. 6

    Ensure the oil is hot enough. It should read 180° on a food thermometer or you can test with a wooden spoon. Putting the tip into the oil should create small, steady bubbles. Large and violent bubbles means the oil is too hot.

  7. 7

    Add the chicken into the oil piece by piece. Fry for around 4 minutes, until browned. Keep the chicken moving the prevent it from sticking together or to the pan, and to ensure it fries evenly all over.

  8. 8

    Remove the chicken from the oil and drain in the sieve to let the excess oil drip off. Heat a wok over medium high heat.
