Add chicken pieces and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes to 1 hour depending upon how much time you have. The longer you marinate the better.
When you are about to fry the chicken, add cornflour and mix, it should coat the chicken well. You can add more if required.
Heat oil and fry on a high flame, do not overcrowd the chicken in the oil. After 5 minutes you can flip the chicken and reduce the flame to medium.
When the chicken turns to a beautiful dark red, remove from oil and serve hot.
