Authentic Thai Recipe for Chicken Wing Appetizers | ปีกไก่ทอดเกลือ |Peek Gai Tod Gluea
Try my recipe for Spicy and Salty Fried Chicken Wings, ปีกไก่ทอดเกลือ (Peek Gai Tod Gluea). They are neither too spicy nor too salty. They’re just right. I used a marinade that includes our homemade red curry paste, and then the wings are fried in a batter containing the same sauce, giving these Thai-style wings an amazing blend of flavors and aromas from fresh lemongrass, galagal, kaffir lime, and dry roasted cumin, coriander, and peppercorns. They are very easy to make up in advance, and are normally served at room temperature making them an easy party food or appetizer that your guests love.
