Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Fermented tofu (nam yu) is key to the umami of Taiwanese fried chicken, so it's highly recommended to use it.
  • Using coarse sweet potato starch gives a crunchier, cracker-like texture.
  • When adding Thai basil to the oil, it may splatter momentarily, so use a lid or splatter screen and fry carefully.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make authentic Taiwanese night market-style crispy chicken at home.
  • Those looking for a beer snack with a crispy texture and exotic spice flavor.
