Ingredients

Marmite Sauce
- 2 Tbs Marmite
- 2 Tbs Soy sauce
- 8 Tbs Mirin
- 4 Tbs Sake (or shaoxing rice wine)
Chicken
- 500 g Chicken thighs (boneless)
- 1 Garlic clove (crushed)
- 1 Tbs Soy sauce
- 4 Tbs Cornflour
- Spring onions (sliced diagonally)
Cucumber pickle
- 160 ml Rice wine vinegar
- 120 g Granulated sugar
- 1 or 2 Cucumber (sliced)
- 2 Tbs Salt
- 1 Red chilli (chopped)

Method

1

To make the sweet cucumber pickle, combine the vinegar, sugar and 160ml water in a pan and bring to a boil over a high heat. Remove from the heat and leave to cool for 1 hour. Put the cucumber slices in a colander over a bowl and rub the salt all over them until they are completely covered. Put a plate with a weight on top over the cucumber slices and leave for 1 hour, then squeeze as much water as possible out of the cucumber slices, but do not rinse them. Add the cucumber and chilli slices to the cooled rice vinegar mix and let them pickle for at least 2 hours.

2

Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces, put in a bowl, add the garlic and soy sauce, mix well and leave for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.

3

Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the Marmite and soy sauce until the Marmite is dissolved.

4

Fill a pan no more than 1/3 full with sunflower oil and heat to 170C or until a cube of bread browns in 40 seconds. Coat the chicken in potato starch or cornflour, shake off any excess flour and carefully add the chicken to the pan in batches. Cook the chicken for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through, then drain on a plate lined with kitchen paper.

5

Add the Marmite and soy sauce to a pan, heat it through to burn off the alcohol and until it is slightly thickened, then add the chicken pieces and mix well to coat them in the sauce. Serve immediately topped with the spring onions and the cucumber pickle on the side.
