- Chicken wings (skin on) – 8
- Corn flour – ½ cup
- Salt and pepper
- Vegetable oil for deep frying
- Sesame seeds – 1 tsp, for garnishing
- Sriracha sauce – 3 tbsp
- Tomato ketchup – 2 tbsp
- Vinegar – 1 tbsp
- Hoisin sauce – 1 tbsp
- Sugar – 1 tsp
- Corn flour / cornstarch – 1 tbsp
- Water – 1 cup
- Wash and pat dry the chicken wings and cut each wing at the joint into 2 pieces. Add salt and pepper and mix to coat them well.
- Spread the corn flour on a shallow dish. Heat enough oil in a deep frying pan.
- Take one piece of chicken wings at a time and place it on the corn flour. Coat each side well with the flour, then shake off the excess and tip it into the hot oil.
- Fry the chicken wings until each side turns golden brown for about 2 minutes per side on medium heat. Take them out and place on a paper towel.
- Now heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a skillet. While the oil is heating up, mix all the ingredients listed under sauce in a bowl.
- Add the sauce mix to the skillet and let it come to a boil and thicken. It would take couple of minutes.
- As soon as the sauce comes to a boil, add the fried chicken wings and quickly toss them in the sauce so that each side of the wings are coated well with the sauce. The sauce will thicken more and cling to the wings.
- Sprinkle sesame seeds over the spicy chicken wings and serve hot. They taste amazing even without any dip!
