Then slide the marinated chicken pieces to hot oil and deep fry for 4-5 minutes without stirring and flipping. Do not stir immediately after leaving in oil otherwise the coating will go away.
8 – Now flip the pieces and fry for 5 to 7 minutes, till it will turn dark red in colour. (Don’t over fry otherwise it becomes blackish and the chicken will lose its juiciness and taste)
9 – When the chicken is cooked fully, bubbles will reduce.

2 – You can use 1 egg in the marination. It keeps chicken pieces soft, but the egg smell will be there.
3 – Don’t fry chicken pieces on a very high flame.
4 – Do not stir immediately after leaving in oil otherwise the coating will go away.
