Through the lenses of Asianpixmen
A lot of Malaysians like their chicken deep-fried, crispy and golden in colour.
Chicken pieces done this way are common in what we call the mamak restaurants or the Indian restaurants. Because of the diversity of races, food tastes are inter-related after about 100 years or so.
The Chinese, Indians and Malays learn to love each other’s cuisine, one way or the other.
We are a group of photographers seeking to document and share the images of Asia. We are based in Malaysia and we use a wide variety of cameras. All the images here are for anyone to download and use for free but we would appreciate it if you can inform us which image you use for trackking purposes. Also, we will be greatly indebted if you could credit thus:

what is recipe for it la
Well, as you can see, we are also multi-talented. If you want a recipe instead of pictures, here goes – even if we are not anywhere a near to being a mamak or Colonel Sanders:
The batter:
Two Cups Flour (If you can get the Japanese tempura flour, so much the better).
Two eggs, both with yolks removed.
Some honey (the eatable kind, from bee hives)
Some water.
Salt to taste.
Mix the flour, eggs (you will have to figure out how to remove the yolk, buddy), and honey. Then add in water and slowly stir the mix to the consistency that when you dip your fingers into the batter and take it out, the batter will leave a thin coat onto it. That is thr right consistency.
Then you put oil into your frying pan so that it is enough to cover submerge the meat and heat it up. Once it is hot enough (you can see slight smoke emanating from its surface).
Dip the chicken in the batter and fry away.
It may not taste like Kentucky’s but what the heck, nothing tastes as good as what you whip up.
Beer is an optional accompaniment though.
where can you buy tempura flour ?
You can find tempura flour in any reputable supermarket. For example, Giant, Tesco, Carrefour or even Jusco. Just ask any supermarket assistant.
Good luck, Glenn.
