Clean the chicken, rinse it thoroughly with cold water and dry them.
In a medium sized bowl mix the egg, powdered milk,and the cold water (water + with ice cubes).
Mix all purpose flour with salt and make sure they mix well.
Soak the chicken into the mixture of egg, milk, and iced water for a minute then coat it with the flour mixture;flip if thoroughly and evenly.
Repeat above step twice.
Pour cooking oil into deep skillet or frying pan and heat it to 350F, add the chicken and fry it till it turns brown.
Make sure the chicken turns golden brown and cooked thoroughly.
Drain it on a paper towel and serve it warm with sauce of your preference.
Most fried chicken recipes in Indonesia that I know of added MSG or Umami in the recipe to make it more savory. However, this recipe excludes it as we don't use it. If you prefer extra savory other than from salt, go ahead try add a pinch of it.
