How to cook
Prepare chicken & paste

- Heat oil in a pan and saute the galangal until it’s fragrant.
- Add the paste, bay leaves and ginger slices into the pan.
- Saute all the ingredients together on low heat for 5 minutes.
- Stir in coconut water and cook until the oil separates from the paste.
- Add salt and chicken, ensuring that the latter is evenly coated with the mixture.

- Set aside the chicken on some kitchen towels to cool.
- Chill in the refrigerator if left out for more than 3 hours.
- Deep fry the chicken until it is golden brown and crispy!
