A few days ago I made a dish, namely Popcorn Chicken in Padang Sauce. Popcorn chicken is chicken (boneless) in small, crunchy (because using flour). Saus Padang (Padang sauce) is a sauce made with ketchup, chili sauce, oyster sauce, and others. It's called Padang sauce because of its red color like typical Padang dishes.

Beberapa hari yang lalu aku membuat sebuah hidangan, yaitu Ayam Popcorn Saus Padang. Ayam popcorn adalah ayam (tanpa tulang) kecil-kecil yang kriuk (karena menggunakan tepung). Saus Padang adalah sebuah saus yang dibuat dengan saus tomat, saus sambal, saus tiram, dan lainnya. Dinamakan saus Padang karena warnanya yang merah seperti masakan khas Padang.
