Thai-style Fried Chicken

Leave it to the Thais to create the best fried chicken in the world. This batter perfectly coats your chicken (or vegetables, as we made fried mushrooms and onions that turned out excellent). Simply mix it with water and sugar (see mix below). You really can't go wrong, and it's just excellent batter. We fried drumsticks and breast slices, then used world-famous Thai sweet chile sauce as a dip.

Ingredients
1.5 cups Kruathip brand fried chicken batter mix
3/4 cup water
2 teaspoons sugar
Vegetable oil for frying
Your choice of chicken and/or vegetables for frying

Method
Follow these instructions as they yield better results than what is written on the package:
Combine batter mix with 3/4 cup water, then add 2 teaspoons sugar. Put an inch or so of vegetable oil in a frying pan and heat at medium-high. Fry chicken or vegetables until golden brown, then flip and cook the other side. For chicken, cooking time is about 15 minutes total. Less for vegetables. Serve with Thai sweet chile sauce.
