Prep chicken by rinsing and patting dry.

Season chicken drumsticks with salt, white pepper, and chili pepper, then set aside.

In a separate bowl, mix salt, white pepper, Masche Cooks everyday spice, and flour.

Blend cornflakes in a processor until almost fine, then mix with the flour mixture.

In another bowl, crack 3 eggs and mix with additional seasoning, then set aside.

Coat each chicken drumstick in the egg mixture using one hand, then transfer to the flour and cornflake mixture to coat evenly, setting aside after each.

Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot on a low setting to avoid overheating.

Carefully add chicken to the oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot, and fry for about 10 minutes, turning every minute to ensure even cooking.

Transfer cooked chicken to an absorbent kitchen towel to drain excess oil.
