- If you cannot find them do not worry, the recipe will still work OK.
- The Javanese seem to like their chicken pretty well done and chewy. I prefer mine a little more tender and fry it for a bit less than ten min. It has been a while since I made this, but I believe about seven min is sufficient for me. This chicken is delicious and also good cool.
- Make lots of it.
