Easy to cook and delicious Chicken Roll with Beancurd Skin.

Chicken Roll with Beancurd Skin is a popular culinary dish in Indonesia. It consists of minced chicken rolled with tofu skin/beancurd skin and then deep-fried until crispy. Typically, boneless chicken meat is used for the filling, and the tofu skin used is thin and soft. The process of making Chicken Roll with Beancurd Skin begins with grinding or mincing the chicken meat into a smooth texture. The chicken meat is then seasoned with various spices such as garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, pepper, and other preferred seasonings. After that, thin sheets of tofu skin/beancurd skin are used as wrappers for the minced chicken. The minced chicken is placed on top of the tofu skin and then rolled tightly. Next, deep-fried it in hot oil until both sides turn golden brown and crispy. The frying process takes a relatively short time to ensure the chicken is perfectly cooked and the beancurd skin becomes crispy. Chicken Roll with Beancurd Skin is usually served as a main dish accompanied by white rice or other sauteed vegetables.
