Who doesn't like Salted Egg Yolk Chicken? I mean, come 'on... each deep fried chicken cubes are well coated with the savory sauce of fragrant salted egg yolk and aromatic curry leaves. Don't tell me you are not falling for this mouth-watering dish? OMG... they are sinfully yummylicious!
My hubby and I had a good share of this Salted Egg Yolk Chicken. We finished up everything upto the leaves and yes, nothing was spared. The curry leaves were crispy as well and they shared the same savory sauce of fragrant salted egg yolk which makes it so yummy to be eaten just on its own!
By the way, curry leaves are very good for our hair, to keep it healthy and looking black, which is just perfect for me (because I've been spotting few strands of white hairs lately).

Notes:
● To prepare the salted egg yolk, steam it for 5 minutes and mash finely using a fork.
● To get crispy deep fried chicken, fry two times. The first time, over medium high heat until light golden brown. The second time, over high heat until golden brown.
● If you are using salted egg yolk powder, replace each salted egg yolk with a tablespoon of powder.
