In reply to Tommy. Rice flour is gluten-free and therefore can make food crispy. Other substitutes can be low gluten flour or only use sweet potato flour. Cornflour is another good substitute.

Hi Lanny,
I completely understand your concern since I am leaving in Malaysia, a country with a large Muslim population just like you.
I usually just substitute the alcohol with chicken stock, and it does working well.

Thanks,

In reply to Jason.

Hi Jason,

Rice flour can make it crispy so go for it. If you want to make it very crispy, try adding some baking powder to the flour mix. I suggest every 100g of flour for coating, add 4g of baking powder.
As for egg white, it may not has much impact as the amount is small.

Thanks,

KP Kwan

I was thinking to add rice flour on mixture B and additional breadcrumbs to make it even more crispy. Does rice flour makes chicken even more crispier when fried if i’m not mistaken? I got his idea from my father. And instead of using 1 tbsp of water how about susbtitute it for 1 tbsp of egg white?

In reply to wlong. Thank your for pointing out the sodium content. A significant amount of sodium comes from the seasoning sprinkled on the chicken. I did not sprinkle all on the chicken, and keep the remainder for future use. So you I suggest you just mix a quarter teaspoon of salt, pepper, and some chili powder, so there will be no wastage. I have amended the recipe and reduce some salt too. Appreciate your attention. It should not affect the flavor.
