Instructions
Brown Gravy
Clean and cut potato, tomato, and onion.
Preheat stockpot with cooking oil.
Add sliced red onion and fry to aromatic.
Add water.
Add brown stock powder and dissolve it with a whisk or spatula.
Add chopped tomato, potato, green peas, and bay leaf.
Bring to a boil then reduce heat to simmer.
Simmer for
30 minutes
.
Season gravy with salt and sugar.
Set aside the gravy.
Frying Chicken
With a mixing bowl, add salt, sugar, water, cooking oil, and egg. Mix together to dissolve salt and sugar.
Add boneless chicken into the marinade and marinate for 30 minutes or more.
Put a generous amount of pre-mix fry chicken powder into a tray.
Bring the marinated chicken into the tray and coat marinated chicken with pre-mix fry chicken powder to a dry coating.
To deep-fry chicken, preheat cooking oil to high heat.
Put the coated chicken into the oil with the skin side down.
Once the outer layer of the chicken begins to crisp, lower the heat to medium-low.
Fry to
8 minutes
.
Check doneness of the chicken by poking through it. As long it goes through smoothly and there is no blood flowing out, then it is cooked through.
Plating
Place a generous amount of vegetables from the gravy on the side of the plate.
Gently place the fried chicken on the center of the plate, slightly slanted over the vegetables.
Pour a generous amount of brown gravy over the chicken and serve.
