Korean Fried Chicken Your Favourite K Drama Snack

---

Credit: Gerald Lee I love to eat something crispy and sweet every time I sit down to watch my favourite television series but chips, cakes and chocolates just don’t cut it when the hunger comes after watching a series or a movie that is famously known of its artistic shots of food, especially K Drama or Korean soaps.
The Simple Pleasures of K Drama Have you noticed how the actors in K Dramas, during scenes where they are required to eat, are really enjoying doing so?
When you see the way they eat, the way they mix and match flavours, the slurping of the noodles, you can’t help getting hungry yourself.
I find myself in that position all the time. So, the next time I decide to watch my favourite K Drama, I make these sinfully good, sticky sweet crispy Korean fried chicken.
After that, no more getting hungry in the middle of an episode!
Ingredients:
a) Fried Chicken
20 chicken wings2 teaspoons of salt1 teaspoon of ground pepper125g Tapioca Starch/Flour (or Corn Starch)White Sesame Seeds, for garnishCorn or Vegetable oil for deep frying b) Sweet & Spicy Glaze

80ml soy sauce65g castor sugar2 tablespoons of white vinegar1 tablespoon of Korean gochujang paste3 cloves of garlic, finely grated1 teaspoon of oil Method:
a) Fried Chicken
Combine chicken wings with the salt and pepper. Set aside for 5 minutes. Dust each chicken wing in the tapioca  or corn flour, make sure to tap off any excess. We will be frying the chicken twice. Let’s start with the first round. Fill a wok or saucepan to about 1/3 capacity with the vegetable oil. Heat on high flame. The oil is hot enough when a wooden chopsticks  dipped into the oil forms small little bubbles.  Fry the chicken in batches if your frying pan or wok is small  for about 20 minutes or until golden. Drain on paper towel.  Set aside for a few minutes.To start with the second round of frying, ensure the oil is hot again.Then add the chicken pieces back into the oil and cook for another 10 minutes or until super crispy and deeply golden. Drain on a wire baking rack. b) Preparing the Glaze
For the sweet and spicy glaze, place the ingredients in a small saucepan over high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 2 minutes.  Set aside. c) Glazing
Brush the wings with the sweet and spicy glaze. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.  Experience the Emotions Now you don’t have to wonder how those deliciously tempting Korean food in your favourite series taste like.
