Fried once, karaage is fine — tender, well-seasoned, a bit soft at the edges within minutes of leaving the oil. Fried twice, with a rest in between, the crust turns thin, glassy and genuinely crisp, and it stays that way long enough to actually enjoy at the table. The ginger-soy marinade does the flavour work; the second fry is what makes the texture worth the extra ten minutes.</p>Thu, 01 Jan 2026 18:05:00 +0000
