LEMONGRASS FRIED CHICKEN / AYAM GORENG BUMBU SERAI


I got this from my maid. She made great AYAM BUMBU SERAI. Mine was not as good as her's Her's you can see the shredded lemongrass top to the chicken, mine I just don't know what happened I couldn't find the shredded lemongrass. She's no longer with us, I couldn't refer the short fall, any how the taste was there and  may be I need to try it again. The dish is fantastic. The chicken was marinated overnight and its was so tender and juicy. Goes along well with NASI LEMAK or any other dish. It can also be a one dish meal with may be chili sauce or Sambal Kitchen.

Ayam Goreng Bumbu Serai ini memang menjadi favorite keluarga. Saya belajar ini dari pembantu rumah saya, tapi sayang goreng saya ini kurang bumbunya. Bumbu Serai ini sepatutnya di taburkan ke atas ayam. Memanga sedap ayam ini sebab ayam diperap dengan bumbunya semalaman.
