Discover the deliciousness of our Rendang Ayam Quaters Legend :
 

• Chicken Leg Quaters : These large cuts include both thigh and drumstick, offering a juicy texture and rich flavor. Keeping the bone in adds depth to the sauce and helps retain moisture during the long, slow cooking process.
•  Spice Base : A fragrant and complex blend of shallots, garlic, ginger, galangal, lemongrass, tumeric and dried chilli paste. Often includes kerisik (toasted grated coconut) for a nutty depth and lime leave or tumeric leaves for added aroma.
• Cooking Method : The chicken quaters are simmered in the spiced coconut gravy until the sauce thickens and clings to the chicken. As the cooking progresses, the sauce reduces into the thick, caramelized coating with oils from the coconut milk and kerisik enhancing the flavor.

Flavor Profile :

• Rich, umami-packed, mildly sweet and spicy with a smoky-caramelized finish. The bone-in chicken gives the dish a more robust and traditional taste compared to boneless versions.

Serving Suggestions :

• Served whole or halved, with the golden, spice-rich gravy spooned over.
• Best enjoyed with steamed rice, lemang or nasi minyak.
• Garnished with fried shallots, fresh herbs and often accompanied by sambal or pickled vegetable.
