Ingredients
Scale
Wings
- 8 Chicken Wings
- 1 Pinch Salt and Pepper
- 1 tbsp Corn Starch
- 1 tbsp Weak flour
- Oil for shallow frying (high smoke point like canola or vegetable oil)
- Fine white pepper for sprinkling
Sauce
Instructions
Sauce
- Add 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp mirin, 1 tbsp sake, 1/2 tbsp honey, 1/2 tbsp sesame seeds and crush 1 clove of garlic into a small cold pan.
- Mix everything and place the saucepan on the stove.
- With a medium heat, bring the sauce to the boil.
- Once boiling, turn the heat down to low and simmer until reduced to half.
- When it's reduced and thickened, remove it from the heat and set aside for later.
Wings
- Sprinkle the wings with salt and pepper and rub it over the surface.
- Coat the wings with a mixture of corn starch and weak flour (1 tbsp of each).
- It's time to shallow fry. In a frying pan, add oil so its about 2cm (1 inch) high. Heat your oil to 160°C (320°F), preferably use a thermometer to check the heat accurately. We maintain the temperature on a medium-low setting but all stoves vary so checking with a thermometer is the safest way to be sure.
- Once heated, add the chicken wings and fry for 3 minutes on each side.
- Increase the heat to 190°C (375°F) and fry for 1 minute on each side.
- Remove the chicken wings from the oil and place on a wire rack to allow any excess oil to drip off.
- Take the sauce from earlier and using a pastry brush, apply the sauce generously over both sides of the chicken wings.
- Sprinkle fine white pepper generously over both sides of the chicken wings.
- Serve up and enjoy!
