Authentic KFC-Style Fried Chicken

• 1 around 800 grams Chicken (whatever cut you like)
• 15 grams Salt
• 180 ml Water
• 4 shakes Black pepper
• 2 clove Garlic (grated)
• 1 knob Ginger (grated)
• 2 tbsp Corn Starch (or katakuriko)
• 1 Egg
• 100 ml Milk
• 80 grams Cake flour
• 3 tbsp Bread (strong) flour
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Allspice
• 5 shakes each White pepper, black pepper

1. Pierce the chicken in several spots with a fork to release the water, place in a plastic bag with the ingredients and rub it in.
2. Squeeze out the air from the bag and let sit in the fridge for at least 2 hours to marinate.
3. Mix and ingredients in separate bowls.
4. Fill a frying pan a third of the way up with oil and warm it up, then add 2 tablespoons of lard (not listed).
5. You can use shortening if it is unavailable.
6. It tastes better if you use it, but it's okay if you don't have it.
7. Wipe off the moisture from Step 1, dip into the ingredients and then the bowls.
8. Fry both sides at 180C for 5 minutes each, then turn up the heat to high and fry for about 40~50~60 seconds.
9. This time I used 600 g chicken wings, then combined the leftover and and fried the cartilage.
10. It was crispy, and the kids loved it.
