DIRECTIONS

1
Clean the chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
2
Use a mini food processor or a mortar and pestle to blend the garlic, cilantro roots and salt until they become a fine paste.
3
Add the paste, fish sauce, oyster sauce, ground black peppper to the chicken and mix well. Transfer the chicken into a big Ziploc bag and marinate for four (4) to six (6) hours in the fridge, or best overnight.
4
When ready, heat up a pot of cooking oil or use a deep fryer. While waiting for the oil to heat up, mix the three types of flour together in a new Ziploc bag. Add the chicken and coat evenly with the flour mixture. Shake the excess flour off.
5
Drop the chicken gently into the oil and deep fry the chicken until crispy and golden brown (the inside should cook thoroughly but remains juicy). Transfer the fried chicken out on a plate lined with paper towels to soak up the excess oil.
6
Serve the fried chicken immediately with Thai sweet chili sauce.

Chicken Kiev

Chicken Kiev This dish is completely scrumptious but I mean how could it not be? It has everything you need, it’s got perfectly tender chicken, a crisp exterior, and a savory molten interior. This meal packs quite a hit in ways that are deeply satisfying and completely drool worthy. After you eat this chicken, I’m warning you you may need to take a nap. Oh yeah it’s one of those meals, one that just hits the spot in both flavor and how completely rich and filling it is. So let’s get into it, while this dinner requires just a smidge more effort than some of my easier meals, it’s worth it, trust me. Hails from Eastern Europe, specifically places like Russia, Ukraine, and Poland. Chicken breast is pounded out, stuffed with a garlic herb compound butter, coated with eggs and breadcrumbs, and eventually fried and/or baked. The best part of this chicken truly is the filling. You roll the flattened chicken around some garlic herb compound butter and it melts when heated up in the ove...

PAKISTANI PAKORA (POTATO FRITTERS)

These are the best Pakoras (aka potato fritters) you will ever eat. Yup, I am making that claim because they are, quite simply, the best I’ve ever had in the twin cities, either home or professionally made. They are so good, that I’m actually a wee bit hesitant to share this recipe, because that means relinquishing the title of best pakora maker. However, I am making this sacrifice for the greater good. The world needs more of these awesome Pakistani pakoras. There are way too many bland, tasteless pakoras out there. NO MORE. I say. it doesn’t get any more Pakistani than pakoras, my friends. With the rainy season upon us, the most Pakistani thing to do is eat pakoras and drink chai. It’s practically our patriotic duty. In commemoration of our beloved country’s 70th anniversary of Independence, I decided to share my beloved Pakistani pakora recipe. (And if you’re still looking for more Pakistani flavor after these, you should check out my Authentic Chicken Curry with...
