Ingredients

Main Ingredients (For 3 people)

  • 600g Chicken thighs
  • Rice flour to taste
  • Potato starch to taste

Seasonings

  • [A] 6 tbsp Sake
  • [A] 4.5 tbsp Soy sauce
  • [A] 3 sachets (8g each) Kombu and Bonito dashi
  • [A] Mirin to taste
  • [A] Ginger to taste
  • [A] Garlic to taste

Steps

  1. Cut chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Place the cut chicken thighs in a bowl.
  3. Add 6 tbsp sake and 4.5 tbsp soy sauce to the bowl.
  4. Add 3 sachets (8g each) kombu and bonito dashi. [Key Point!] Adding dashi condenses and enhances the umami.
  5. Add ginger to taste, cut into large pieces. [Key Point!] Ginger removes the gamey smell from the chicken.
  6. Grate and add garlic to taste.
  7. Add mirin to taste and mix everything well.
  8. Marinate the chicken thoroughly in the seasoning and leave in the refrigerator for 1 day. [Key Point!] Sumo stables marinate for 1 day to let the flavors soak in.
  9. Mix rice flour and potato starch in a 1:1 ratio. [Key Point!] Using only rice flour can make the coating too thin, and using only potato starch can make it too hard, so mixing them half and half is recommended.
  10. Heat frying oil to 180℃.
  11. Thoroughly coat the chicken marinated for 1 day with the mixed coating.
  12. Fry the chicken in oil heated to 180℃. [Key Point!] Frying over high heat makes the coating crispy.
  13. Once the chicken is cooked through, remove from the oil, considering that residual heat will continue to cook it.
  14. Drain the fried chicken well and serve on a plate.
