Japanese Fried Chicken (Karaage) | Super Crispy Street Food

Double frying is the secret to Japanese karaage: the first fry cooks the meat through while keeping it juicy, resting allows internal steam to escape, and the second fry at a higher temperature guarantees a long-lasting, ultra-crispy crust.

For a truly authentic Japanese flavour experience, mix a little grated garlic or a drop of sesame oil and chilli powder into the mayonnaise.
