    This is the most affirming video ever! Me and my girlfriend felt embarrassed by how many times we went to get these wings when we were in Thailand considering how many other amazing food options there are everywhere. But honestly, they are unreal. Thanks for the validation we will definitely be making these.

I have gotten to make her so many of her childhood favs because of your channel! Thai KFC is definitely next on the list! 🥰

    I lived in Thailand for a short period of time 10 years ago and there was a KFC 2 minutes away from me. I was so addicted to these wings I had to physically slap myself out of it. At that time they came out with the new wing bucket and my obsession got even worse lol I tell everyone I know how good KFC is in Thailand. Been meaning to recreate this recipe so thank you so much. Sincerely. I can finally get my fix!

    No way!!! After moving back to England from Thailand 4 years ago, I had basically resigned myself to the fact that I will never have these wings again until I go back to Thailand. Now I don't have to wait. Thank you so much! They are not the best wings in Thailand, they are simply the best wings. Keep doing what you do Pai, it's amazing for people like me who know what authentic Thai food tastes like but just can't get it in our own countries. I know this might not be classed as "authentic" but oh my Buddha does it make me think of Thailand.
    By the way, have you ever done a Hokkien Mee or Bai La recipe? I'd love to see how you would go about making them.
    Thanks again, all the best from The Lake District.

I love it in water (much more appealing than plain water 🤓) and pho. It’s way better than the bottled citrus liquids, and they also make lemon, orange, and grapefruit versions (in addition to fruity blends). Not affiliated 😂 just a fan of them and YOU!!

    I love Zab wings at KFC, but they are a bit too spicy for me. I limit myself to just three. Having a recipe is nice so I could adjust the heat. I love the sour flavor, I think regular citric acid powder would work as a replacement for lime powder in case people cannot find it.

    Congratulations on a truly enjoyable channel Pailin. Your advice is always effective. However, if I may be so bold as to suggest:
    Mixing your dry ingredients and Chicken in a plastic bag. Shake, shake, pat, pat, and you won't feel as though your Airway's Mucosa has been stripped away.
    It is also possible to achieve a Deep-Fried effect with an Air Frier. I like to soak the chicken in Butter Milk for 4+ hours; Coat the chicken in Dry Mix with Panko Crumbs;
    Spray on Canola Oil and cook for about 15 mins at 190C. Hey presto. And it actually looks nice. Anyhow, keep up your good work. It's much appreciated.

    I find double frying works for me.
    1st fry in 2 batches to cook the wings.
    You can literally crowd the pan with both batches after letting it sit for no more than 10 mins in the second fry and then toss in the seasonings.
    Then serve.

    • @everythingexplained
      @everythingexplained Před 6 měsíci

      Yeah, I too find it best to double fry.
      First time I made this I crowded the fry and the wings stuck a lot. And I used a smallish cast iron pot indoor.
      But lately I've ignored the winter and used my outdoor wok for frying these, so much better. Even if I must dress in winter boots and use mittens to not freeze my fingers off :D

    We were on holiday in Kuala Lumpur a few years ago. One evening after a few beers, we were walking home and felt hungry. The only place open was McDonalds. I never normally eat McDonalds, but needs must. I was extremely surprised to see them selling spicy coated chicken called Ayam Goreng. We live in the UK, McDonalds does not serve chicken here.
    The spicy chicken they served was some of the best chicken I have ever had, and I am a chicken nut. It was juicy, crispy and very spicy. If they sold that chicken here in the UK, they would put KFC out of business.
    Maybe you could look into Malaysian Ayam Goreng from McD's and try to create that.
