Critical Success Points

  • Simmer the broth for 50 minutes to develop the flavors.
  • Brown the chicken before adding the broth to create depth of flavor.
  • Prepare the cornstarch slurry and add it off the heat to avoid lumps.
  • Properly dry the rolls before frying to prevent them from bursting.
  • Double fry the rolls to achieve the characteristic crispiness.

Safety Warnings

  • Frying oil reaches 180 °C: handle with care to avoid burns.
  • Use kitchen gloves when removing the hot rolls from the oil.
  • Be careful of splatters during the double frying.
