Ingredients

  • 102g (12 Tbsp / 36 tsp) white pepper
  • 66g (9 Tbsp + 1 tsp / 28 tsp) black pepper
  • 18g (4 Tbsp / 12 tsp) ground sage
  • 5g (2 tsp) ground coriander
  • 18g (2 Tbsp / 6 tsp) ground ginger
  • 11g (4 tsp) of cayenne
  • 5g (2 tsp) vanilla bean powder
  • 5g (1 Tbsp / 3 tsp) ground bay leaf
  • 5g (1 Tbsp / 3 tsp) ground savory

Directions

  1. Place all ingredients except salt in a spice grinder; grind and shake to combine.
  2. Transfer to a sealable container, add the salt and shake to combine.
  3. Preheat pressure fryer to 165°C.
  4. Mix together 48g spice to 100g flour.

  6. Dip chicken in egg wash, then dredge in flour spice mix.
  7. Deep fry until golden brown and cooked through.

Notes

  • The gram figures and the spoon figures above do not agree with each other. Taking standard spice weights, the stated grams run roughly 15-45% heavier than the stated tablespoons and teaspoons, and the discrepancy is not consistent from spice to spice.
  • This was transcribed from the video linked above, so at least one of the two sets is likely to be a mishearing. Neither has been verified, and nothing here has been adjusted to make them match.
  • Pick one set and use it throughout rather than mixing the two. Check the source video before trusting either.
