Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken feet washed, nails trimmed and outer skin peeled
- 4 cups water for boiling
- ¼ cup vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
- 1-2 cups cooking oil start with 1 cup and add as needed, for frying
- 2-3 cups water for soaking, iced or cold
SAUCE
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger minced
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 ½ tablespoons water
- 3 tablespoons rice wine
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 3 pieces star anise
- 1 green chili sliced, long
- 2 Thai Chili pepper sliced
Instructions
- In a pot over medium heat, combine 4 cups of water, vinegar, and sugar. Bring it to a boil. Add the chicken feet and blanch for 3 minutes. With a slotted spoon or a mesh skimmer, remove them from the hot water and transfer them into a bowl of cold water to stop further cooking.
- Drain the water from the bowl, then add dark soy sauce and mix to coat. (This is to give them a nice color.) Pat dry the chicken feet with paper towels.
- In a wok, heat the oil over medium heat. Fry the chicken feet in batches until golden and crispy, about 5-8 minutes.
- Plunge the freshly fried chicken feet directly into a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least an hour or up to 4 hours. (This will make them soft and wrinkled.) Drain well and discard liquid.
- In a bowl, combine all ingredients for the sauce except for the star anise and the chilies. Add the chicken feet and toss to coat completely.
- Place the chicken feet with sauce in a deep plate or bowl. Add star anise and scatter the chilies on top. Place the bowl in a steamer and steam for 30-40 minutes or until tender and wrinkled.
- Serve while hot and enjoy!
