👩🍳 Instructions
- 1 Mix the tapioca flour and all-purpose flour, then add the salt and garlic powder.
- 2 Pour in the hot water little by little while kneading.
- 3 Knead until the dough is smooth and no longer sticky, then add the scallion.
- 4 Make the filling: mix the shredded chicken with sambal, sweet soy sauce, and salt.
- 5 Take a small handful of dough and flatten it in the palm of your hand.
- 6 Add 1 tsp of filling in the center, then shape into a ball and seal well.
- 7 Heat oil over medium heat.
- 8 Fry the cireng until puffed up and golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.

💡 Tips
• The water must be truly hot (boiling) so the dough can become smooth and pliable.
• Don't add too much filling so the cireng doesn't burst open while frying.
• You can swap the filling for mozzarella cheese or corned beef instead.
