马来香料炸鸡 Ayam Goreng Berempah (Malay Spiced Fried Chicken)

 这款马来香料炸鸡，

是吃Nasi Kukus（马来蒸饭）常见的配料之一。

娜娜老早就叫我煮了，只是太多“待做食谱”等着兑现，

就不免耽搁了。

那天看到Sonia的分享，太诱惑！自然就插队了。
This Malay Spiced Fried Chicken can be said as a common dish that goes well with Nasi Kukus (Malay steamed rice). NaNak had long since requested me to cook this dish, but too many recipes on the to-do list delayed its debut. However, after seeing how tempting it looked on Sonia's blog, I decided to let it jump the queue.

经过长时间香料腌制的鸡肉，

在热锅里炸煎时，就香气飘满屋；

上桌享用时，更是叫人垂涎三尺，

肉质湿润鲜甜，皮香参杂香料松丝，

一句话，Hociak !
Marinated with a variety of spices over long hours, the chicken gave off a most mouth-watering aroma as it slowly turned brown in the wok. The taste is even more delicious, the sweet, tender chicken filled enhanced by the taste of the spices. Marvelous!

当天还请来二伯一起享用，

向来嘴叼的他，也大赞这炸鸡好吃，

真的谢谢Sonia无私的分享。
That night, I invited NaNak's uncle over for the meal. He was all praises that night. Many thanks to Sonia for such a wonderful sharing!

 如Sonia说，那些香料松丝可香脆得很，千万别丢掉哦！

Remember to keep the fried spiced crumbs, 

that is actually the most yummy part!
