Indonesian Air Fried chicken recipe | Ayam Goreng | Gourmia Air Fryer recipes
This is my super easy Indonesian-Style air-fried chicken recipe or Ayam Goreng. Everyone loves fried chicken right but sometimes it is not the healthiest option because the batter absorbs the oil. Indonesian fried chicken differs from other fried chicken because it is not coated in any batter. Instead, the chicken is richly marinated with lots of spice and pre-cooked in those spices before being deep-fried until it is golden brown. Best of all, I will be skipping the deep frying part and using my new Gourmia Air Fryer which I have found to be very convenient and a great alternative to deep frying.
Ingredients
500g – 1kg of chicken
4-6 cloves of garlic.
1- 2 tsp ground coriander.
½-1 tsp turmeric powder.
A small handful of Macadamia nuts or candlenuts/ Kemiri (optional)
4-6cm of galangal.
A small handful of Indonesian bay leaf (optional)
1-2 tbsp of lemongrass paste or 1-2 lemongrass stalks
1-2 tsp salt.
2-3 tsp sugar.
½-1 tsp White Pepper
Vegetable oil
Now, I am not a fan of deep-frying at home: apart from the fact that it is unhealthy, it can also be messy and smelly. And then there is always the problem of how to get rid of the old oil. The new Gourmia Air Fryer which I got for my birthday is a real game-changer for the types of recipes I can make at home. There is no better recipe to start off with than Ayam Goreng with is an Indonesian classic.
Recipes vary from region to region but my recipe was originally from West Java. However, I have made adaptations to the original recipe. I am using macadamia nuts instead of candlenuts (or Kemiri nuts) and curry leaf instead of Salam leaf (or Indonesian bay leaf). Candlenuts and Salam leaves are not that easy to come by. To be fair, you can order them from the internet but I wanted to make a super easy inclusive air-fried chicken recipe from ingredients bought from my local supermarket.
