That should work. I will caution that the batter is VERY clumpy and you may have to add a bit of water to thin it down slightly so it coats. Unfortunately that seems to be (the batter) at the mercy of atmospheric conditions, but the batter should be the consistency of a thick American pancake batter.

I've tried a couple of times and I'm pretty much at a loss. It's difficult to put into words what the texture should be like. If you can offer some suggestions, I'd REALLY appreciate it. Email me with suggestions on an edit. I welcome it!!

The only ingredient I didn't have was soki. The clumpy batter problem also happened to me. I read and re-read to make sure I had done everything correctly. I am uses to frying chicken so it seemed like a crazy consistency. After adding the beaten egg to the corn starch/flour mixture, then to the thighs it didn't look right so I added a little water, and it made it more pasty. I fried one piece first and I was surprised the pasty chicken fried up and looked great.
I would describe your directions differently. The flavor was wonderful. I will make again.

That's what I do and I only coat a couple of pieces at a time. The "batter" is very sticky but it will adhere as long as the chicken isn't wet or too slimy (sorry, no other word fit). I also pound my chicken pieces down some so there's more surface area to coat. You could also try refrigerating the chicken before trying to do this. I've never had that trouble, at least with this.

All I get is a clumpy gooey mess that dose not stick to the chicken. I have now wasted 4 pounds of chicken on this recipe.

Please reply, I really want to try this one.

I just made this for dinner, and it was amazing! I substituted regular flour for gluten free all purpose flour, and it worked perfectly. Thanks so much for sharing!
