(Adapted from Appetite Recipes Annual Book 2012)

What You'll Need:

1 Whole Sakura Chicken (w/o backbone)

2 tbsp light soy sauce

1 tbsp Hua Tiao Chiew

Oil, for deep-frying

Gravy:

1 tbsp oil

4 cloves garlic, chopped

1 tbsp Marmite Yeast extract

4 tbsp runny honey

2 tbsp water

2 tsp dark soy sauce

1 tsp light soy sauce

1/2 tbsp Hua Tuao Chiew

Garnish:

Handful of coriander leaves

1 red chili, sliced into strips

1 tbsp almond slices, toasted

Method:

1. Chop chicken into pieces (I got 14/15 pieces) and toss in soy sauce and Hua Tiao Chiew. Leave to marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

2. Heat oil in fryer and deep-fry chicken pieces till they turn golden brown and skin is crispy. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

3. Prepare gravy. Heat oil and saute garlic till fragrant and light brown. Add remaining gravy ingredients and cook till gravy becomes glossy. Turn off heat and toss fried chicken in gravy to coat well.

4. Add a splash of Hua Tiao Chiew over  chicken pieces just before dishing up. Garnish and serve with hot steamed rice.

Have fun!
