Kinda missing the authentic taste of this Geprek, so here I am (we are) again to have our dose of gorgeous Ayam Geprek Surabaya. Ayam Geprek (Fried Chicken smashed with House Special Chilli Sauce), swap the steamed white rice with red rice for a healthier me (that’s what they said), and add deep fried egg omelette and cabbage on the side. Healthy enough?
I chose the hot chilli sauce on purpose, as I need some party in my mouth at that time. Fried cabbage, well I love it. You guys should try it too, but not too much. Yes it absorbs the frying oil, but the taste and texture are worth the health risks. Spread it on top of a spoon of rice and smother it with the chilli sauce, heaven.
Chicken was fried perfectly, succulent meat and crispy skin + batter. Again, the chilli sauce elevated the dish and it does its job well as I expected with Ayam Geprek Surabaya. Be careful with the chicken bones as the smashed fried chickens here are bone-in, not boneless. The tamarind soup/Sayur Asem is there, ready anytime for you to sip on it and refresh your palate.
The fried omelette? Greasy, but good. Won’t hurt to have it once in a while. Till next time
