Ingredients
  

  • 1 kg chicken wing nibbles
Batter
  • 1 cup plain flour
  • 1 cup cornflour
  • 1 tbsp Kosher salt
  • 1 tbsp sweet paprika
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 cup water
Additional
  • oil for deep frying

Equipment

  • 1 Sauté pan, wok or deep frier

Method
 

  1. Combine all the dry batter ingredients in a bowl
  2. Gradually add water while whisking the dry ingredients until the batter has a runny but not watery consistency. It needs to be a little thick, but still runny.
  3. Add the chicken to the batter and make sure the chicken is fully coated.
  4. Heat oil in a pan for deep frying to around 150 degrees C. I normally use a wok for deep frying but this time I used my sauté pan.
  5. Fry the chicken for about 15 minutes until it’s a deep brown colour. Don’t overcrowd the pan. Cook it in batches if necessary.
