Instructions
-
Fry the wings
- In a pot, heat cooking oil to 100 °C, add the chicken wings to fry them for the 1 st time.
- Cook for 20min.
- The oil should be lightly simmering, and the chicken wings should not brown.
- After 20min, remove wings from oil and drain.
- Prepare the marinade while waiting for the wings to cook.
-
Prepare the shallots
- In a mortar and pestle, pound shallots till you see shallot juice in the mortar.
- Add a pinch of salt to the mortar to achieve a paste.
- Once you get a paste-like consistency, set the shallots aside
- Wash the mortar and pestle and dry.
-
Prepare the dry spices
- In a pan on high heat, toast the cloves, fennel seeds, cumin and black peppercorns until they are fragrant. Be careful not to scorch the spices.
- Remove the toasted spices, pour into the dry mortar and pound with pestle.
- Pound until the spices are a fine powder, but still maintain some texture.
- Add chilli powder and cinnamon to the mortar. Mix well.
-
Prepare the marinade
- In a bowl, add the spice mix to the shallots. The juice from the shallots will absorb the spice.
- Add coconut cream and mix to achieve the consistency of a slightly runny paste.
-
Marinate the wings and cook!
- Coat each chicken wing in cornstarch to absorb any remaining moisture on the surface.
- Using your hands, massage the marinade gently into the wings till they are evenly coated. Set wings aside to soak up the marinade.
- When ready to serve, heat a pan with oil at 200 °C, and fry the wings for 20 to 30 sec, or until golden brown.
Plate and Serve!
Serve piping hot!
