BETTER THAN TAKEOUT: Easy Salted Egg Chicken 咸蛋鸡 SINGAPORE Chinese Recipe

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Salted egg chicken is one of the most popular dishes in Singapore. In fact, Singaporeans seem to like anything with salted egg yolk. I'm not sure where was it originated from but I must salute the person who invented this style of cooking. You gotta try this to believe me.
Roland used only yolks from 4 salted eggs but I think if you want the salted egg taste to be more obvious, you can increase to 6 yolks.
Hope you can recreate this yummy dish in the comfort of your home. Thanks for dropping by our channel.

    Some tips: 1)Use sweet potato starch for the extra crisp 2)Deep fry half the curry leaves for garnish and extra crisp 3)Add a dash of pan roasted peanut powder for umami 4)Turn off flame before adding chicken to prevent the crust from softening

    +Carol Napolitano thank you so much. The reason why you wanna double fry instead of leaving the chicken longer in the oil is because you want the temperature of the oil to rise up again to optimal point so that the chicken will be crispier.

    This is interesting. Curry leaves are used exclusively in Indian cooking. I've never heard of their use anywhere else in any other form of cooking. In fact I don't think you can get them easily outside of India. Or did you use them just for a fusion variation in your dish?

    Good morning Yoginc! 🤓🤓 Singapore is made up of immigrants many many years ago. My ancestors came from China and Roland’s grandma was from China too but his grandfather was a Korean. We had quite a number of immigrants from South India so perhaps these curry leaves were introduced to us by them. Many SINGAPORE dishes use curry leaves as one of the key ingredients because the leaves give the dish an extra fragrance 👍🏻👍🏻 I love SINGAPORE! We’re a melting pot of many different cultures. Wonderful.

And yes you can omit the wine if you don’t have. No problem. But if you have the chance to get a bottle of Shaoxing huatiao wine as well as a bottle of Chinese white rice wine, we highly recommend you to get them - that is you enjoy cooking regularly.

    For the deep frying, 150c for first, 180c for second after the chicken has cooled for at least 5mins. Use fan for faster turnaround. Sauce from start to finish should be medium to small. Turn off flame before adding chicken to prevent the crust from softening.

    +aliss .dove Hihi. When you're blanching chicken, don't wait for the water to boil before you add the chicken. Put the chicken in when the water is still cold. When the water is boiling, let the chicken stay in the boiling water for another 5 mins before taking it out for a rinse. After rinsing the chicken, you are ready to cook it per your desire. If it's a fresh chicken, there shouldn't be much funky smell or taste. Hope this helps.
