Ayam Gereng (Indonesian Fried Chicken)

Yield: 4 Servings

Ingredients

1 m Chicken
d

== MARINADE ==

1/2 c Tamarind water
1 tb Clear soya sauce
A pinch of chilli powder
1 ts Ground ginger
1 ts Ground coriander
1 Clove garlic, crushed
A pinch of turmeric

Directions

The name means simply 'fried chicken', and that is all it is. The marinade, however, gives it a characteristically Indonesian flavour.

Marinate the pieces of chicken in this mixture for 2 hours, turning them from time to time.

Strain the chicken, so that the marinade drips away from it. Then deep-fry the portions, 4 or 5 at a time. Chicken fried in this way is excellent with Nasi Goreng.

[Nasi Goreng is friedrice. S.C.] Makes 4 servings.
