Shares Bringing my friend ’ south request to reality, this Korean Fried Chicken Cake is a savory cake made from rice and Korean fried chicken. Perfect for those who do not like sweets and actual cakes .

I have been asked a fortune by my friends to make a coat that is not a coat. What I mean about is not the usual sweetly cakes from a mix of flour, shortening, eggs, and sugar. But it is actually about patty alternatives made from other ingredients. not only express to sweet foods, but it could be savory foods or something that looks exchangeable to cake shape .
When I still worked at my corporate job, the job of getting my coworkers ’ birthday coat fell on my hands. I normally alternate the dulcet and savory options. But in most cases, they asked me to make savory cakes because not everyone out there actually likes cakes. Shocking, right ?
There were about a twelve people in my old office. Consider I had to make about one coat for each month. My creativity was tested because I did not like to do the lapp things over and over. I have done a lot from lasagna, okonomiyaki stacks to tortilla cakes. I did not normally post this kind of cake on my web site, but my friends by and large know about this from my Instagram stories. That is how my supporter knew about this and asked me to make an unusual coat like this Korean Fried Chicken Cake .

The Story Behind This Cake

This customs patty was made specially by request, considering the liquidator did not like sweets. stopping point month, a supporter commissioned me to make a cake with a reference to my previous Dakgangjeong recipe. She knew that I liked to experiment with new things and challenged me to make something out of ordinary. I was only given 5 days to send this coat to the customer and gave a certain of the budget for this project. That is how korean Fried Chicken Cake was born .
This cake was basically a three layers cake. The bottom and the top were made from a assortment of steaming white rice with nori furikake seasoning and sesame oil. The middle layer and the topping were the boneless Korean Fried Chicken. For decoration, I drizzled the top with , sprinkled sesame seeds, and topped it with curly green onion slices.
and sesame oil. The center layer and the top were the boneless Korean Fried Chicken. For decoration, I drizzled the acme with Kewpie mayonnaise, sprinkled sesame seeds, and topped it with curly greens onion slices. I could not find any reference for this cake, so I took a pugnacious guess of how much rice and fried wimp I needed. For the cake size, I used the smallest surround I had, which was a 6-inch cake band. I besides estimated that 1kg of fried wimp would be enough, but obviously, it was not. therefore, you will see why the rice proportion is excessively a lot considering how curtly the center layer is. fortunately, my ally was not that fussy about it .

I was actually very glad with how it looked. adjacent prison term if I have the chance to do this again, I would like to fix the proportion of rice and Korean fried chicken. It means more korean fried chicken and less rice so that I got the courteous lapp thickness layers .
How about you ? Do you prefer an ordinary coat or something strange like this for your birthday ?

Korean Fried Chicken

1. Marinate the chicken with rice wine, salt, and black pepper for 30 minutes.

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and pour a generous amount of oil for deep-frying. When the oil is hot enough, coat a piece of chicken with starch evenly and slide the coated chicken piece into the hot oil. Repeat until half of the chicken is placed in the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until the batter is light golden brown.
3. Take out the done chicken and place them onto some kitchen paper while frying the remaining chicken pieces.
4. Deep fry the chicken again and fry them until the batter is golden and crisp for about 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
