All Meat, Fish and Poultry Sauces and Dips

Waitrose Barbecue Sauce

First, I have to apologise that this isn’t going to come with plenty step by step pictures, because I was supposed to recreate this recipe at home yesterday, told myself, I would be taking just a short nap, and I woke up this morning. hahahahahaha. This recipe is so simple though, you can do it in your sleep, so you will do fine. It is something to try for this weekend, especially for those in the UK who may be planning a barbecue for the bank holiday, to mark the end of summer. Me thinks, summer ended 3 weeks ago to be honest. it is getting cold again, and all that rain. Sad face.

You can make this sauce also as a dip. I learnt how to make this sauce at the cocktails at party bites event at the waitrose cookery school, and when the cooking instructor made his and told us to taste before we made ours, while we really enjoyed it, Tope and I said we were going to ease of on the vinegar a bit, because it tasted too tart, and would you believe that by adjusting the recipe, ours tasted better. Yup, it did.

You have been having fried chicken for probably as long as you can remember, you have also been making barbecue sauce, probably for as long too, but this particular sauce, yum, yum, yummiest. Try and stop at the shops today or tomorrow would you, and pick up all the ingredients that you need. Let’s Cook

Waitrose Barbecue Sauce
Author: Dunni Obata
Recipe Category: Sauces and Dips
Prep time:  10 mins
Cook time:  25 mins
Total time:  35 mins
Serves: 2
 
A sticky, delicious barbecue sauce that works with any protein of your choice.
Ingredients
  • For the sauce
  • 3 tbsp dark soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp tomato ketchup
  • 3tbsp clear honey
  • Salt
  • seasoning cubes - optiona
  • 1½ - 2 tbsp white wine vinegar - or any vinegar
  • 2 tbsp ground chipotle chilies - you can use dry pepper or suya pepper
  • 1 tsp red chili flakes - optional
    For the Fried Chicken
  • oil for deep frying
  • plain flour
  • sprinkling of dry pepper - cayenne pepper or smoked paprika
  • chicken wings
Instructions
  1. First, you have to set your deep fryer to 180 degrees, or if you are using a pot, add enough oil to deep fry and place on the heat till it get hot enough.
  2. First you have to start with the chicken, so in a bowl, combine all the ingredients, i.e. the flour, dry pepper, chili flakes, suya pepper, salt, seasoning cubes (if you are using). Ensure that they are well combined. Add the chicken and toss around until every part of the chicken is well coated with flour.
  3. When the oil is hot enough, shake off any excess flour from the chicken and place in the oil to deep fry. Dooney's Kitchen Tip: if you are using a pot, I would advice that you don't get the oil too hot, otherwise, the outside will fry quickly and turn brown, leaving the chicken inside partly cooked or even raw
  4. While the chicken is deep frying, quickly make the sauce by whisking together all the liquid ingredients in a bowl. Add as much dry pepper or suya pepper to it as you want, to raise the heat up a notch. Here was Tope preparing the sauce, while i fried the chicken
  5. Once the chicken has browned outside sufficiently, drain any excess oil on a kitchen paper towel, and add the fried chicken to the bowl you mixed the sauce in. Toss it around until well combined. Dooney's Kitchen Tip: it is advisable that you combine the chicken with the sauce while it is still very hot, so that it can absorb as much of the flavour, and be sticky and yum
  6. Serve with a cheese dip,or on its won with other delicious goodness from the grill, or even a salad

    Well done huns.

    Quick one, the chicken in naija is different from the UK ones o. Over there you can afford not to pre-boil before frying cos they are soft enough but in Naija, I’m not so sure. What do you think? To pre-boil or to fry raw? Tenz a bunsh. 😀

        Depends on the type of chicken you buy. Soft chicken is readily available in the markets. You can fry or grill those without boiling.

    [email protected] Buki O i didn’t have to boil first.The trick to it is deep frying and being meticulous about the temp of the oil cos you don’t want it too hot.

    If they the chicken is to be boiled first should it be seasoned or just boiled in plain water?

Nigerian food, is bold, multi faceted, rich, colourful, spicy and with varied nuances, as you move from tribe to tribe. To describe Nigerian cooking, one would say it is fiercely traditional and somewhat dogmatic, but Dooney’s Kitchen proposes to simplify methods and steps that have been passed from generation to generation whilst also challenging some of these methods using Technology. The New Nigerian Cookery isn’t just about creating a New Nigerian Kitchen, or should we say a more technology aware Nigerian cooking experience, but it encompasses redefining recipes too. Come along on the journey, and welcome to one of the best online resources for Nigerian food.
