Who doesn�t love fried chicken? Even vegetarians like fried chicken. Baby chickens are quick to cook, which keeps everything tender. This is a simple dish, but really pleasing. I really like Korean fried chicken and will visit any place in Chinatown if there�s the slightest possibility it could be good. Korean Fried Chicken (KFC) influenced this recipe.

Cook's notes
Oven temperatures are for conventional; if using fan-forced (convection), reduce the temperature by 20�C. | We use Australian tablespoons and cups: 1 teaspoon equals 5 ml; 1 tablespoon equals 20 ml; 1 cup equals 250 ml. | All herbs are fresh (unless specified) and cups are lightly packed. | All vegetables are medium size and peeled, unless specified. | All eggs are 55-60 g, unless specified.
Instructions
Marinating time 4 hours or overnight
Whisk all the marinade ingredients together in a bowl until the sugar and salt dissolve. Put the chicken pieces in a bowl, add the marinade and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and leave to marinate for at least 4 hours. Overnight in the fridge is even better.
To make the coating mixture, mix everything together in a bowl until combined.
To make the kimchi mayo, pur�e the kimchi in a food processor until smooth. Transfer to a bowl, add the mayonnaise and whisk to combine. Set aside.
Fill a deep-fryer or large heavy-based saucepan one-third full with oil and heat to 170�C (325�F) or until a cube of bread dropped into the oil turns golden in 20 seconds. Remove the chicken pieces from the marinade and cover each piece in the coating mixture until it feels dry. Deep-fry in batches in the hot oil for 5�6 minutes, or until the skin is golden and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towels and sprinkle with spicy salt. Serve immediately with the kimchi mayo.
To make the spicy salt
Makes about 1 cup
In a dry frypan over a medium heat, toast the Sichuan peppercorns, coriander seeds, cinnamon stick and cloves until fragrant and lightly coloured. Mix with the rest of the ingredients and blitz in a spice grinder to a fine powder. This mixture will keep in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
