Easy Korean-style fried chicken [plus sizzling tofu!]

I TOOK ADVANTAGE of the city holiday by staying at home while trying some easy dishes. When I went out last week to do the grocery shopping for mama, I instantly craved for fried chicken ^_^ and no-no to ordinary fried chicken, it must be Korean-style! aja!

So I went on and pass by the shelves of SM supermarket [at SM Bacoor] and look for stuff: chicken, seasonings, breading, etc... and tadaa! look what I've found!

I immediately grabbed two flavors of McCormick Korean Fried Chicken recipe mix, soy garlic and kimchi :)

As soon as I got home, I tried making soy garlic fried chicken and it's very easy! Here's what I did:

1. I thawed five pieces of chicken drumsticks, washed and drained excess water.

2. I opened the package of the recipe mix. [See! it has a batter mix and a sauce, plus the illustrated steps of the "how-to" ^_^]

3. I poured the contents of the batter mix and sauce into two separate bowls.

4. I diluted the batter mix into 1/4 cup of water and dipped the chicken drumsticks. 

5. The final step! I deep-fried the chicken, drained them in paper towels and coated them with the sauce :) <I added bits of fried garlic!> Voila! Done and ready to be served!

Aside from the fried chicken, I also cooked sizzling tofu ^_^ This is a very easy recipe, you just need to secure the following ingredients:

• Deep-fried Tofu, cut into small cubes
• Mayonnaise <1 pouch>
• Evaporated milk <1/4 cup>
• Garlic and onions <minced and chopped>
• Salt, pepper, sliced green chili peppers

For the procedure: Prepare a sauce pan. Saute garlic and onion in a tablespoon of palm oil. Add the green chili peppers, mayonnaise and milk. Toss in fried tofu and mix altogether. Season with salt and pepper to taste [you can add other herbs and spices depending on your preference]. Serve hot! :)

~This is my personal recipe, you can modify it so it could suit your taste~

Whew! that was quick but still tiring to make. But I always love to sweat in front of a heated stove! As long as the sweat won't be added to the dish you're preparing <eeeewww!> don't stop experimenting and trying new dishes. There are a lot of stuff that you can find in your favorite supermarket that will ease the cooking process and deliver great dishes! 

'Til next time! 

Good food is meant for sharing :)
