A delicious chicken lollipop recipe. Crispy Chicken Lollipop is made with chicken drumsticks, cornflour, refined flour, ginger-garlic paste and chilli paste. It is fried to perfection until crispy and best served with sweet chilli sauce.

Ingredients-

• 10 (880g) Chicken Drumsticks
• Salt & Pepper to taste
• 2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
• 4 Tsp Ginger-Garlic Paste
• ¼ Cup Flour
• ⅛ Cup Cornflour
• 3 Tbsp Chilli Paste
• Water as required
• Oil, for frying

Steps-

Step 1

Place the drumstick on a cutting board and cut flesh from the top of the joint. Scrape down the flesh to the bottom of the drumstick using a sharp knife such that the bone is clean and you have a perfect chicken lollipop. Repeat with all the drumsticks.

 Step 2

Transfer the lollipops to a large bowl, add salt, pepper, soy sauce and 2 tsp ginger-garlic paste. Mix well and rest for 15 minutes.

 Step 3

In the meantime, add flour, cornflour, 2 tsp ginger-garlic paste, salt, pepper, chilli paste and water in another bowl. Mix well to form a thick batter. Add more water if required.

 Step 4

In a deep pan, heat oil over medium-high heat for frying.

 Step 5

Next, dip the chicken lollipops one-by-one into the batter and lower into the hot oil. Cook in batches for 7-8 minutes until golden brown. Take out the lollipops out of the oil for 10 seconds and return to the hot oil to cook for a further 3-4 minutes until crispy. Repeat with remaining lollipops.

 Step 6

Once cooked, drain on a paper towel.

 Step 7
