Repeat until half of the chicken is placed in the hot oil.

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and pour a generous amount of oil for deep-frying. When the oil is hot enough, coat a piece of chicken with starch evenly and slide the coated chicken piece into the hot oil.

Marinate the chicken with rice wine, salt, and black pepper for 30 minutes.

How about you? Do you prefer an ordinary cake or something unusual like this for your birthday? It means more Korean fried chicken and less rice so that I got the nice same thickness layers. Next time if I have the chance to do this again, I would like to fix the proportion of rice and Korean fried chicken. I was actually very happy with how it looked. Fortunately, my friend was not that fussy about it. Therefore, you will see why the rice proportion is too much considering how short the middle layer is. I also estimated that 1kg of fried chicken would be enough, but apparently, it was not. For the cake size, I used the smallest ring I had, which was a 6-inch cake ring. I could not find any reference for this cake, so I took a rough guess of how much rice and fried chicken I needed. For decoration, I drizzled the top with Kewpie mayonnaise, sprinkled sesame seeds, and topped it with curly green onion slices. The middle layer and the topping were the boneless Korean Fried Chicken. The bottom and the top were made from a mixture of steaming white rice with nori furikake seasoning and sesame oil. This cake was basically a three layers cake. That is how Korean Fried Chicken Cake was born.

I was only given 5 days to send this cake to the customer and gave a certain of the budget for this project. She knew that I liked to experiment with new things and challenged me to make something out of ordinary. Last month, a friend commissioned me to make a cake with a reference to my previous Dakgangjeong recipe. This custom cake was made especially by request, considering the receiver did not like sweets. That is how my friend knew about this and asked me to make an unusual cake like this Korean Fried Chicken Cake. I did not usually post this kind of cake on my website, but my friends mostly know about this from my Instagram stories. I have done a lot from lasagna, okonomiyaki stacks to tortilla cakes. My creativity was tested because I did not like to do the same things over and over. Consider I had to make about one cake for each month. There were about a dozen people in my old office. But in most cases, they asked me to make savory cakes because not everyone out there actually likes cakes. I usually alternate the sweet and savory options.

When I still worked at my corporate job, the job of getting my coworkers’ birthday cake fell on my hands. Not only limited to sweet foods, but it could be savory foods or something that looks similar to cake shape. But it is actually about cake alternatives made from other ingredients. What I mean about is not the usual sweet cakes from a mixture of flour, shortening, eggs, and sugar. I have been asked a lot by my friends to make a cake that is not a cake.
