Set the dials to spicy, because this fried chicken will pack a punch! This pack contains 100g of spicy seasoned flour, specially designed for making crispy, crunchy kara age fried chicken. Make kara age for lunch or dinner, or for sharing around at dinner parties.
ITEM ID: #6671
Kara age is a relatively recent addition to the Japanese food repertoire, but there is no doubt that it will be here to stay for a long time yet! Traditionally made by marinating pieces of chicken in soy sauce, mirin, and other spices, coating them in flour, then deep-frying them to crispy perfection. If you’re after something a bit simpler, try using any of the special kara age flours available at Japan Centre.
To make unbeatably spicy kara age chicken:
• Cut 400-500g chicken thighs into large bite-size pieces. Put into a bowl and add 50ml milk. Mix well until the chicken has been well-coated.
• Add entire packet of kara age flour to the bowl and mix everything together until the chicken is well-coated with the flour. Leave to rest for 10-15 minutes.
• Drop chicken pieces into a saucepan of oil at 160-170 degrees celcius, five or six pieces at a time. Allow to fry for 3 minutes, then remove and let drain.
