Yield: 4 Servings
 
1 md Chicken MMMMM--------------------------MARINADE-------------------------------      1/2 c Tamarind water
1 tb Clear soya sauce A pinch of chilli powder      1 ts Ground ginger
1 ts Ground coriander      1 Clove garlic
 crushed A pinch of turmeric The name means simply 'fried chicken' and that is all it is. The marinade however gives it a characteristically Indonesian flavour. Marinate the pieces of chicken in this mixture for 2 hours turning them from time to time. Strain the chicken so that the marinade drips away from it. Then deep-fry the portions 4 or 5 at a time. Chicken fried in this way is excellent with Nasi Goreng. [Nasi Goreng is fried rice. S.C.] Makes 4 servings. From "Indonesian Food and Cookery" Sri Owen Prospect Books London 1986."
