Ingredients
- 8 pieces Chicken drumsticks
- 1 cup Coconut flour
- 500 ml Coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon Turmeric powder
- 1 tablespoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Fennel seeds
- 2 tablespoons Ginger, minced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 10 leaves Curry leaves
- 2 large Eggs
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine turmeric powder, ground coriander, chili powder, cumin powder, fennel seeds, minced ginger, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2
Add the chicken drumsticks to the bowl and rub the spice mixture all over them until well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for best results.
Step 3
Beat the eggs in a separate bowl and dip each marinated chicken drumstick into the beaten eggs.
Step 4
Place the coconut flour in another bowl and roll the egg-coated chicken in the coconut flour to form a light crust.
Step 5
Heat the coconut oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the curry leaves to the oil first, allowing them to sizzle and infuse the oil with their aroma.
Step 6
Carefully add the chicken drumsticks to the pan, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Fry them for about 8-10 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and the outside is golden and crispy.
Step 7
Transfer the fried chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 8
Serve hot with a side of fresh salad or your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.
