  • Wash your hands
  • Take your burger bun base
  • Stack it with two hash browns, cheese (lots of it), an original recipe fillet and drizzle with buffalo sauce
  • Add some more cheese and another hash brown and top with some blue cheese sauce
  • Add the seeded bun and skewer with two hot wings smothered in more buffalo sauce

Can you make KFC chicken at home?

During lockdown, one man was missing his fried chicken fix so much that her perfected a recipe that he claimed is a close substitute to KFC, and shared how to make it online.

Dan Fell from Warwickshire shared the recipe he developed so that we can make KFC-like chicken at home. Dan says it took him over 18 months to perfect the recipe, which mimics the fast food chain’s unique blend of 11 herbs and spices.

Posting on Twitter, Dan said, “I’ve cooked this a huge number of times, you get better each time.

“I’d say my strike rate for 'Mate, you really cannot tell the difference' is about four out of the last five times. I’ll take that.”

Dan added that the secret to success is all about having a perfect combination of ingredients, and offers this advice, “You have to have a deep fryer and you need the right mix of the herbs and spices.

“The oil needs to be 160-165C no more and no less, and the chicken needs to be room temperature and you use egg white and milk as the wash (no yolk).”

Anyone wanting to try it out can follow the recipe below, as posted on Dan’s video, which has over 58,000 views.
