Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces chicken drumsticks
- 250 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 large egg
- 120 ml water
- 1000 ml vegetable oil
Instructions
Begin by patting the chicken drumsticks dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, ground white pepper, paprika, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir these dry ingredients together until they are well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and mix it with the water to form an egg wash.
Season the chicken drumsticks with the remaining 1 teaspoon of salt to ensure they are flavorful.
Pour the vegetable oil into a deep frying pan or skillet and heat over medium-high heat until it reaches about 175°C (350°F). To test, drop a small piece of bread into the oil; it should sizzle and turn golden brown in about 1 minute.
Dip each drumstick first into the egg wash to coat thoroughly, allowing any excess to drip off.
Then dredge each drumstick in the flour mixture, making sure to coat all sides evenly by pressing the flour mix onto the chicken.
Carefully place the coated drumsticks into the hot oil, taking care not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the chicken in batches if necessary.
Fry each piece for about 12-15 minutes, or until a deep golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F). Turn the chicken occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Once cooked, remove the drumsticks from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
Serve the Ayam Goreng Tepung hot with your choice of side dishes and dipping sauces, such as sambal or sweet chili sauce.
