2 lb. chicken wings
Sauce:
2 tbsp granulated sugar
4 tbsp distilled vinegar
2 tbsp honey
1/2 C chicken stock
4 tbsp dark soy sauce
1/2 tsp dry red chili pepper or to taste
1 tbsp salad oil
1 tbsp sesame oil

1 tsp seasoning salt
4 cups vegetable oil

Sauce: in a bowl, put sugar, vinegar, honey, chicken stock,
soy sauce and chili pepper; mix thoroughly.
Heat salad oil and sesame oil in wok or frying pan over low heat,
then add garlic and ginger; stir-fry 10 seconds. Add sauce mixture,
stirring constantly. When sauce begins to bubble, add cornstarch,
remove from heat when it starts to thicken. Makes 1 cup.
Batter: Put egg in bowl; beat until it starts to foam. Add flour,
cornstarch, water and seasoning salt; mix well.
Trim off the tips of the chicken wings. Lightly coat wings in batter.
Heat oil to 320 degrees in deep fryer. Fry in batches so there is

and cover with sauce, then top with minced green onions.
