Instructions
- [Authentic Recipe]
- Make regular Yansuji. Marinate chicken with five-spice, fry crispy in sweet potato flour (fry harder than usual so the crust doesn't get soggy from the cheese sauce).
- [Cheese Sauce] Heat milk, butter, cheddar cheese, and a little flour on low in a small pot to make a gooey, rich yellow cheese sauce (commercial nacho cheese sauce works too).
- Place freshly fried chicken in a paper bowl (or cup) and pour the hot cheese sauce generously like a waterfall until the meat is hidden.
- Finish with parsley (or powdered cheese).
