Cooking Instructions
- 1
Place chicken wings in large bowl. Add garlic, nutmeg, curry powder and salt. Mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hour or over night. If cooking right away do not refrigerate but keep at room temperature. But for best results marinate for 2 hours if wanting to cook right away. (In these pictures I let them marinate over night.)
- 2
Right before frying, add flour and potato starch and mix thoroughly with your hands. The potato starch should stick to the chicken wings in a thin coating. Feel free to pat the starch onto the chicken wings firmly with hands.
- 3
Prepare for deep frying: get out your cooling racks. Set paper towels underneath to catch any grease drippings.
- 4
Get your oil thermometer out and a pot with high sides. Add 2-3 inches cooking oil with a high smoking point. (Grapeseed oil is great for this) The goal is to add enough oil for the chicken wings to float in the pot and not stick to the bottom.
- 5
Wait until the oil reaches 380 degrees. Then, add the chicken wings in batches until golden and crispy about 8-10 minutes. Drain wings and set aside on paper towels.
- 6
Now it's time for the second fry. The temperature of the oil will not dip down as much as the first fry. Fry the (already fried) chicken wings in batches until they are darker and golden brown in color about 8-10 minutes per batch at 350 degrees. The wings are done when they look shrunken and compacted with a crispy coating. Drain and set aside on cooling racks.
- 7
Prepare the sauce: add corn syrup, soy sauce, rice vinegar in a small bowl and set aside. Add a pinch if sugar if not sweet enough to your liking.
- 8
Prepare the minced garlic and ginger. Set aside.
- 9
Heat a wok or deep stock pot over medium high heat and add oil. When hot but not smoking add chili flakes, garlic and ginger. Mix around with a spatula or wooden spoon until fragrant and crispy looking, about 1-2 minutes.
- 10
Add the soy sauce mixture and mix until the sauce bubbles vigorously, about 2-4 minutes. Turn off the heat.
- 11
Add the chicken wings and mix with spatula or wooden spoon until each wing is coated in sauce. Transfer to plate and garnish with sesame seeds, green onion or cilantro.

Korean Fried Chicken Korean Fried Chicken
I've eaten this so many times, it's possibly my favourite food. Here's my interpretation after eating and cooking several different versions. I prefer a basic raw sauce, but I tried a cooked one which is great as well and slightly more acidic due to ketchup. I included both recipes.

This is just the coating and not the sauce, sauce is up to you. Adjust the measurements based on how many wings. I use AP flour as the base of the batter since it promotes browning because it has protein in it. There are many variations but this is mine.

Northern Fried Chicken Northern Fried Chicken
This is not a typical Southern fried chicken recipe, let's get that out of the way.The coating is lighter and crisp in a way that brings to mind a cornmeal crust. Using egg whites ensures that the crust stays put, even if your chicken sticks to the bottom of the frying pan.May it be cute little chicken popcorns or the whole chicken piece for your burgers, this recipe is perfect for any occasion that calls for comfort food.Method adapted from Blue Ribbon Cookbook by Bruce Bromberg and Eric Bromberg.
