Instructions

1. Make rempah (spice paste)

  • In a pan on medium heat, roast dried shrimp paste until fragrant. Set aside.

  • In a blender, blend the roasted dried shrimp paste, chili padi, 2 roughly chopped large red chili, shallots, 150 ml of coconut oil, kaffir lime leaf, garlic, juiced lime and 50 ml vegetable oil until smooth.

| If rempah is not blending well, you may add more vegetable oil to help you achieve a smoother consistency

  • Preheat oven to 180°C.


2. Fry paste, marinate and bake chicken

  • In a pan on medium heat, fry the blended paste until fragrant. Add in palm sugar and mix well.

  • Using ½ of the fried paste, marinate the chicken drumlets for at least 30 minutes. Set aside the other ½ of the paste.

| To add flavor and save time, you can marinate the chicken the night before

  • After marinating, place chicken drumlets on a baking tray. Bake in the oven at 180°C for 10 to 15 minutes.


Plate and Serve!

Serve the chicken drumlets with white rice. Garnish the dish with 1 sliced large red chili, chopped coriander leaves, kecap manis and the remaining blended paste on the side.
