Step 4: Using Philips Air Fryer, bake chicken for 10 minutes at 180°C. Make sure you heat it up earlier with the Double-Layer Tray.

Step 5: For the sauce, sauté blended ingredients with shrimp paste and chilli pepper until there is a fragrant smell. Stir evenly before adding water

Step 7: Add in lemongrass
Step 8: Add salt and sugar for taste

Did I mention I'm afraid of using stoves because of the fire? lol.. So glad we were using a Philips induction cooker here xD

Step 10: Pour sauce over baked chicken (do this for 2-3 times) and bake for another 10-15 minutes, and it’s ready to serve. 

Because the ayam percik is so flavourful, it is suitable to go with a more plain tasting rice. Get the Chicken Risotto recipe to go with it! =)
