Tomyam Baked Chicken

This is another recipe from my archive. It's a dish that I cook very often in SA, as ingredients for Thai cooking are easily obtainable and not as expensive as Chinese ingredients. But more importantly, it's extremely easy to prepare and yet it tastes so yummy!

6 chicken drumsticks with thighs

2) Rinse the chicken pieces and drain well. Mix with the ground ingredients and marinate for at least 1 hour.
