Thank you very much for all the support. I try by all means to answer all the questions, sometimes, there are just too many questions, and if I do not answer yours, sorry, I might have missed it.

Where do I buy my spices? I'm based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates 🇦🇪, so I buy most of my herbs and spices here, but there are other spices that I can only get from home, South Africa 🇿🇦. I buy them online through a shop called Hyperama UAE, or when someone travels from home, I request them to bring them.

When you purchase your spices, do not worry about the brands I use if they are not the same as yours; what is essential is what is inside the packet.

Almost all the spices and herbs I use can be found at Shoprite South Africa, Makro SA , Checkers, My SPAR , Pick n Payand Pick n Pay Hypermarket

Happy Cooking and Bon Appetit.

Deep fried chicken

Ingredients

1 kg chicken thighs ( or use your favorite parts of chicken )
2 cups buttermilk (or use plain yogurt or Amasi)
1&1/2 cup flour
60g corn flour or starch
2 tablespoons multipurpose seasoning
1 tablespoon chicken spice
1 tablespoon garlic pepper seasoning
Seasoning salt to taste
1 liter oil (for frying)

Method

Step 1

In a bowl add chicken season with salt . Mix buttermilk with 1 tablespoon of multipurpose seasoning ( you can add chili sauce), then pour over the chicken and let it sit or soak for 2-4 hours .

Step 2

Combine flour,corn starch,garlic pepper seasoning,chicken spice and 1 tablespoon multipurpose seasoning.

Step 3

Working with one piece at a time, transfer marinated chicken to the dry ingredient and shake well to coat. After all chicken pieces are coated, repeat the process by dipping them in buttermilk marinade and shaking in the dry coating again. Let the dredged pieces rest on a wire rack or plate for 15 minutes .

Step 4

In a deep skillet, heat 1 inch of the oil to 350°F(178-180 degrees). Set another rack over a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Fry the chicken in batches, maintaining the oil temperature at 315°F(160 degrees); turn once, until golden and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of each piece registers 160°F(71-75 degrees), 20 to 25 minutes.

Step 5

Transfer the chicken to the rack or paper towel and let stand for 5 minutes. Enjoy ✅✅✅
