6 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 shallots, chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 2 ounces gingerroot, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon turmeric
  • 2 lemongrass, stalks finely chopped
  • 6 chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • salt and pepper
  • vegetable oil

Directions

  1. 1
    Put shallots, garlic, ginger, turmeric, and lemon grass in a blender and process into a paste.
  2. 2
    Put soy sauce, water, and sugar into a large frying pan. Heat (to help sugar dissolve).
  3. 3
    Put chicken thighs in frying pan and cover with paste. Simmer, uncovered, until cooked (20-30 minutes). Turn about halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  4. 4
    Heat enough vegetable oil to deep-fry the chicken. Oil must be VERY hot - almost to the smoke point.
  5. 5
    Remove chicken thighs, season with salt and pepper, and deep-fry 6-8 minutes until surface is crisp and golden.
  6. 6
    While deep-frying chicken, heat the remaining water and drippings to thicken. Use this as a dipping sauce for the chicken.
