Karaage is a popular Japanese dish consisting of bite-sized pieces of meat, typically chicken, that are marinated, coated in a light flour or potato starch, and deep-fried until crispy. It is a beloved comfort food in Japan, known for its flavorful, juicy interior and crunchy exterior.

Ingredients
- 300 g chicken thigh meat
- 1 clove of garlic, grated
- 1 piece grated ginger
- 1 tbsp sake
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp mirin (sweet cooking rice wine)
- katakuriko (potato starch)
Instructions


Chicken skin and sinew can be left intact.
The size can be as large as you like.


Leave it for about 30 minutes.

Applying a bit more potato starch results in a crispier finish.

I make it without that much oil.

Reduce heat to medium.

Check the frying time as it will vary depending on the size of the chicken.
