Every cuisine has their own version of fried chicken with an iconic flavour. For the malay cuisine, kunyit (turmeric) is a favoured marinade when it comes to fried food
1.
Place the yoghurt, oil, garlic, ginger, vinegar, salt, tomato, turmeric powder, cumin powder, and coriander powder into a blender and blend it until you get a very smooth paste.
2.
Then add the marinade into a bowl with the chicken legs and mix it well. Let it marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes overnight.
3.
Once it is done marinating, add 2 tbsp of oil into a pan and switch it on medium heat for 30 seconds.
4.
Place the chicken into the pan (it should have a gentle sizzle. If not, take it out and let the pan heat up a little more. If it sizzles too heavily, let the pan cool down a bit) and cook it for 4 minutes per side. Make sure to keep it on low to medium heat so that it doesn’t burn.
5.
Once it is done, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes and then serve.
