Tsukune


This small chicken cakes glazed with terikayi sauce is known as Tsukune. You can either homemade the terikayi sauce yourself or buy those bottled one from the supermarket. But I find homemade sauce taste more authentic..

Ingredient
  • 400gm minced chicken
  • 1 small beaten egg
  • 4 tbsp grated white onion
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp soya sauce
Terikayi Sauce
  • 2 tbsp sake
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp mirin
  • 2 tbsp soya sauce
Method
  1. Mix the minced chicken with the egg, grated onion, sugar and soya sauce until the ingredients are combined and well bound together. This process takes about 3 mins until the mixture is quite sticky. Shape the mixture into 12 small, flat round cakes and dust them lightly with cornflour.
  2. Heat some oil in a shallow pan. Place the chicken cakes in the pan in a single layer, and cook over moderate heat for 3 mins. Turn the cakes and cook for another 3 mins.
  3. Mix the ingredients for the sauce and pour into the pan. Turn the chicken cakes occasionally until they are evenly glazed. Shake the pan constantly to prevent the sauce from burning.
  4. Serve immediately.
