Ingredients

• 250 grams minced chicken
• 1 cup tapioca flour
• 2 tablespoons fried shallots
• 1 carrot, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon powder (Masako or equivalent)
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar
• 2 eggs, beaten (for coating)
• Oil for frying
• Skewers (bamboo or metal)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Mixture:

   • In a large bowl, combine the minced chicken, tapioca flour, fried shallots, finely chopped carrot, chicken bouillon powder, ground black pepper, and sugar.
   • Use your hands to thoroughly mix and knead the ingredients until the mixture becomes smooth and cohesive.

2. Form the Skewers:

   • Lightly grease your fingers with a bit of oil to prevent sticking. Take a small portion of the mixture and mold it around the skewers, pressing and smoothing it to adhere well. Continue to shape and attach the mixture to the skewers until all the mixture is used.

3. Cook the Skewers:

   • Bring a pot of water to a boil. Gently place the skewers into the boiling water and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the skewers are firm. Remove them from the water and drain well.

4. Fry the Skewers:

   • Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and season with a pinch of chicken bouillon powder.
   • Dip each cooked skewer into the beaten egg, coating it evenly.
   • Fry the skewers in the hot oil until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes on each side.

5. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Remove the skewers from the oil and let them drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
   • Serve the Sempol Ayam warm, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauce if desired.

These Sempol Ayam skewers are a fantastic addition to any meal or can be enjoyed on their own as a tasty snack. Their crispy exterior and tender, flavorful interior are sure to be a hit with anyone who tries them. Enjoy the delightful taste of Indonesian cuisine right at home!
