    In my neighborhood exist an old Chicken Rice restaurant. The way they prepare their chicken rice is amazing, I would always see a lot of older Chinese aunt and aunties flock there during breakfast hours. I would always pass there during my morning run and get a chicken rice to go and eat it at home. I am so happy that you share this recipe, I will try and replicate it at home.

    This is one of those recipes which are so labor intensive. Fun to do once at home but it takes time and can get really messy with all the oil flying around. It's really worth it to go a restaurant and have them do a good quality chicken on the day.

      And I had a friend come over to cook once. She dropped an egg on the floor and didn’t clean it up, she just walked through it! Never have I ever even seen that. I was freaking out the whole time. She refused to allow me to clean it up in my own house, yet wouldn’t clean it up. After that I never ate anything she made again. Ugh

    This fryng technique is something I do similar to the fried wings I do. The difference is that I fry the chicken under 300, around 250-275 and deep fry it until the the chicken is lightly brown. The trick is to hear the boiling sound, to know the frying process has cooked it through and the sound is coming from the natural juices. I would pull it out, let it cool down and place it in the refrigerator until it's needed. It would go through a final fry around 375 until crispy golden brown.

Daddy Lau, you are a true professional chef. There is so much thought that goes into what you do and how you do it. I truly appreciate knowing how complex it is to make a Chinese red fried chicken now. The next time I have this chicken in a banquet I will have a much more appreciation for all the work that goes into making it.

    Hi, I love what you are doing, it is the first time where I've watched a video and immediately subscribed. I applaud your making of videos as not only does it preserve the Chinese culture, but making such videos also seem to add color in your father's daily life. One suggestion I have for a future series is the concept of "fusion dishes" Where you take two separate dishes that your father has made and challenge him to incoporate it into a dish.

    Attended a Chinese cooking class. They taught me to dry the chicken then hook it at the neck and just submerged the whole chicken in a vat of oil for over 20mins. After that use a fork and poke at the thigh to check if its fully cooked and run along the breast to test if the skin is crispy. The skin was crispy when its hot but becomes soft when it cools down. Will try this method this coming weekend to see if the skin still stays crispy when it cools.

    The advantage of deep frying it is that it seales the outside, allowing the meat to retain its juices. Here it is so long bathed in oil that you are eating so much oil.
    My vietnamese girlfriend used to cook the chicken very slowly in a stock, then dried it and added very hot oil with a spoon in the skin. It was always delicious.

I find it funny that that would be the most difficult thing for a mediterranean to cook a chinese recipe. Anyhow, the airfrier is really just an oven, and all the tricks for making the skin crispier stillw work. I have tried it out for a classic chicken in the oven with potatoes and it's great.

    I’ve been studying this to try and get crispy skin on an oven roasted chicken. I have tried blanching using an electric water jug which tightens the skin and renders some of the fat. Still can’t get the combination of moist meat and crispy skin but rewatching this I realise there is a second cooking process to isolate the skin cooking while minimising further meat cooking by blanching in hot oil. I want to buy a kitchen torch now and reverse sear the skin after the meat is cooking.
