Cooking tips

  • Using whole garlic cloves coarsely chopped with a knife instead of store-bought minced garlic gives a much fuller garlic aroma and better texture.
  • If the batter is too thin, the garlic will fall off when it hits the oil, so be sure to make it thick.
  • If your homemade tangsuyuk sauce feels lacking, it's usually because there isn't enough sugar; the secret is to add it generously.
  • Even without the sauce, the freshly fried meat is excellent when dipped lightly in a mix of salt and pepper for a clean, savory style.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to taste a special Chinese-style meat fry richly infused with the pungent, savory flavor of garlic.
  • Those who want to experience a perfectly crispy fry that's complete with just salt and pepper, beyond sauce-drenched or dipping styles.
  • Those who want to learn the fail-proof golden ratio for a sweet and sour sauce that tastes like a professional restaurant's at home.
