Hi Can we put the chicken in the oven without deep frying? If yes could you explain the method?
Thanks
you cannot do that with this recipe
hi.. Corn flakes contain a little sweetness right… Do you mean the normal Kellogs plain corn flakes? Kindly suggest
yes it is plain cornflakes
Can i skip using the egg?
hi i tried using oats instead of corn it came out very well thanks aarthi for ur lovely recipie
i was shown demo how they make kfc chicken in an outlet once. what they did was, first they dipped the chicken in flour mix. then they quickly dipped it in water and dipped it again in the same flour mix. this way, the water droplets become the flakes we see. the process has to be quick to get good number of flakes. u can try that instead of corn flakes.
What kind of oil did you use to fry the chicken.
veg oil
