Crispy Chicken Seaweed Rolls

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1/3 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1 Maggi cube, crushed
  • 1 tsp chicken powder
  • 1 tsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp white pepper
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1/4 tsp MSG
  • Seaweed (nori) sheets
  • Neutral oil, for frying

Batter

  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 1/3 cup water

Directions

  • In a bowl, mix the ground chicken with green onions, crushed Maggi cube, chicken powder, oyster sauce, sugar, white pepper, olive oil, cornstarch, and MSG until well combined.
  • Transfer the mixture to a zip-top bag and snip off a corner. Pipe a log along the edge of a seaweed sheet and roll it up tightly into a cylinder. Repeat with the rest.
  • Whisk the flour and water into a thin, smooth batter.
  • Dip each roll in the batter to coat, then deep-fry in hot oil until golden, crispy, and cooked through.
  • Drain, slice if you like, and serve hot with a dipping sauce.
