Clean chicken and cut into large pieces. Season with salt and pepper. Grate onions and crush garlic. Soak tamarind in boiling water, otherwise use tamarind puree.
Arrange chicken pieces in a flat bowl, sprinkle on grated onion and garlic and strain on tamarind water. Marinate for 20 mins. Remove chicken pieces, drain and pat dry with kitchen paper.
Heat oil until almost smoking and carefully add pieces of chicken. Deep fry for 2 mins, then remove from oil and return to marinade while remaining pieces are cooked. Marinate for at least 10 minutes the second time, then drain again and pat dry. Return to the hot oil and cook again for 2 minutes. Marinate once more,then fry chicken another 2 mins.
It should be crisp on the surface and the meat tender and moist. Serve either peanut sauce or with soy sauce and krupuk or potato crisps.
