Sempol Ayam Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 250 grams ground chicken
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons tapioca flour
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 stalk green onion, thinly sliced
  • Salt and chicken bouillon (such as Royco) to taste

Spice Paste:

  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 1 teaspoon whole peppercorns

Coating:

  • 1 egg, beaten
  • Salt to taste
  • Skewers (as needed)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Chicken Mixture:

    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, eggs, tapioca flour, all-purpose flour, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and thinly sliced green onion.
    • Season the mixture with salt and chicken bouillon to taste.
    • Using a mortar and pestle or a food processor, grind the garlic and whole peppercorns into a fine paste.
    • Add the spice paste to the chicken mixture and mix until well incorporated. Adjust the seasoning to your preference.
  2. Shape and Skewer the Sempol:

    • Lightly grease your hands with a bit of oil to prevent the mixture from sticking.
    • Take a small amount of the chicken mixture and mold it around the end of a skewer, forming an elongated shape.
    • Repeat this process until all the chicken mixture is used up.
  3. Cook the Sempol:

    • Bring a pot of water to a gentle boil. Carefully place the skewered chicken into the boiling water.
    • Cook the skewers until they float to the surface, indicating they are done.
    • Remove the skewers from the water and drain them well.
  4. Coat and Fry:

    • Dip the cooked skewers into the beaten egg mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.
    • Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.
    • Fry the skewers until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
    • Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  5. Serve:

    • Serve the Sempol Ayam hot with your favorite chili sauce for dipping.

Enjoy the delightful crunch and savory flavor of these Sempol Ayam skewers, perfect as a snack or appetizer at your next gathering!
