Kapanlagi.com - Who doesn't love nuggets? This practical food has indeed become a favorite for many, especially as a stock at home due to its incredible shelf life.

But don't worry! The YouTube channel fionayau presents a smart solution for frying frozen nuggets to keep them crispy and evenly cooked. Reported on Monday (4/11), the method shared not only speeds up the frying process but also ensures that the nuggets are perfectly cooked, free from the soggy texture that often bothers.

This simple technique can be done by anyone at home, so for nugget lovers who crave maximum frying results, now is the time to try it! Prepare your frozen nuggets and follow the steps, and enjoy the delicious crispy nuggets that are perfect!

1. Removing Nuggets from the Freezer and Separating Them One by One

The first step to frying frozen nuggets is to take them out of the freezer, where the nuggets are usually still hard and stuck together. To achieve the best results, it is important to separate the nuggets one by one so that when fried, they do not clump together and cook evenly.

According to Fionayau, it is highly recommended to let the nuggets sit at room temperature for a while before proceeding to the frying process, so that each piece can achieve perfect golden color and delicious flavor.

2. Heat Oil on High Flame

Next, heat the cooking oil in a pan over high heat to speed up the heating process. Once the oil starts to shimmer, lower the heat to medium to stabilize the temperature.

This is important because oil that is too hot can cause the nuggets to cook on the outside but remain cold or soggy on the inside—of course, we want the perfect nuggets, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside!

3. Add Nuggets to the Pan One by One

Once the oil temperature reaches the ideal stability, it's time to carefully add the nuggets to the pan, one by one. Let the nuggets sink into the oil without rushing to flip them. This step is crucial to ensure each side of the nugget is perfectly cooked before we fry the other parts.

According to fionayau, this soaking technique not only simplifies the frying process but also guarantees an evenly cooked final result with a tempting crispy texture.

4. Flip the Nuggets When They Puff Up

Once the nuggets start to puff up and are half-cooked, it's time to flip them so that the other side also gets an even touch of hot oil. Wait a moment until the nuggets transform into a tempting golden color, with a perfect crispy texture.

The distinctive aroma that arises at this stage further enhances its appeal, making anyone eager to taste its deliciousness!

5. Lift and Drain the Nuggets

Once both sides of the nuggets are golden and perfectly crispy, lift the nuggets from the pan and drain them to remove excess oil, making this dish healthier and less oily.

After draining and cooling, the nuggets are ready to be enjoyed at any time, or they can also be stored for a meal later. This way, you can enjoy delicious and satisfying fried nuggets without spending too much time!
