Ingredients

Directions

Special equipment:
a deep-fry thermometer
  1. In a saucepan, combine the sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, green onions, garlic, mirin, chile flakes, sesame oil and 1 1/2 cups water. Heat the sauce; thicken with the cornstarch slurry.
  2. Coat the wings with the flour, then transfer to wax paper. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
  3. Prepare enough cooking oil in a Dutch oven to give the wings enough room to completely submerge them and let them float to the top, and bring to 350 degrees F.
  4. Deep-fry the wings for about 5 minutes; drain. In a separate frying pan, combine the fried wings and wing sauce. Heat the sauce until bubbly and coating the wings. Serve garnished with minced green onions, rice, a piece of fresh fruit and choice of salad (tossed green or macaroni/potato).
