'The Bento Buster makes Japanese fried chicken aka “tori no karaage” using the “fry twice” method. Ingredients: 500-600g chicken thighs cut into 2 inch pieces Marinade 3/4 tsp salt 1 Tbsp cooking sake 1/2 Tbsp grated ginger 1/2 tsp grated garlic pepper to taste 1/2 Tbsp soy sauce 1 egg 1/2 cup flour 1/2 potato starch/cornflour Oil for frying Method: In a bowl combine the salt, sake, ginger, garlic, pepper, and soy sauce. Add the chicken and marinate for 20-30 minutes. Add a beaten egg. Mix well. Place the flour and potato starch in two separate trays. Use a third tray to place the chicken after it has been coated. Individually coat each piece of chicken in the flour, then in the potato starch, then let it rest in the third tray. Continue until all the chicken is coated. First Fry: In a deep pan, heat the oil to 170c. Fry the 1st batch of chicken for 1:30 minutes. After this time turn the chicken in the oil and fry for another 1:30 minutes. Don’t over cloud the pan with chicken as this will lower the temperature. Its best to divide the chicken in to batches. Remove the chicken & drain on a wire rack. While the chicken is resting fry the 2nd batch of chicken & so on. Second Fry: Fry the 1st batch of chicken at 180c for 1:30 minutes. When the time is up the place the chicken karaage on a wire rack to drain. Continue frying the second batch until all the chicken is ready. Serve with salt & lemon. Enjoy!'
