This dish originated from Kalasan, Central Java. The chicken is the main dish but the tempe and tofu can serve as sidedishes. They are marinated in a special seasoning and deepfried in sunflower oil. The chicken is tender and juicy, with a slightly sweet flavour. The chicken is so tender that the bone can be eaten. The remains of the marinade are mixed with flour, fried and sprinkled over the chicken as garnish before it is served.
Accompanying this dish is sweet and spicy sauce made of fish paste, chilli, tomatoes and a fine selection of spices guaranteed to tingle your taste buds. The garden salad served on the side freshens and cleans your palate at the end of the meal.
