Karaage Chicken (Japanese Fried Chicken)

Serving your karaage chicken with Japanese mayo is a must. Photo / Babiche Martens

I’ve recreated a popular street food favourite with this super-quick popcorn chicken, otherwise known as karaage chicken. It’s a must-try. The key is twice cooking the chicken to create the crisp outer coating. Velvety Japanese mayo, available from your local supermarket, is perfect to serve alongside this dish.
