  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • dash of white pepper
  • 1 tbsp. Oyster sauce

  • 4-8 salted egg yolks depending on the size

Instructions

  • pat dry the chicken wings. Poke some small holes in the chicken wings with a fork or toothpick. Mix well and set aside for 15 minutes.
  • During marinating, finely chop the egg yolk.
  • Prepare a plate, then spread cornstarch on it. Dip the chicken wings in cornstarch to ensure each side is well coated.
  • Add a little more oil to a pan, then shallow-fry the chicken wings until crispy. Let it stay for a while until the crust is formed and then flip over and fry the second side. Use medium fire and fry the chicken wings for around 8-10 minutes until they are cooked completely. Flip frequently at the last stage.
  • Scoop extra oil and leave only 2 tablespoons. Wipe alway any fall-offs with a kitchen paper.
  • Add the yolks to the pan. Using a spatula, constantly stir and press down on the yolks. So we can achieve a fine, sandy texture.
  • Continue stirring over low heat until the mixture begins to foam and develop large, airy bubbles. Now return the chicken wings, mix and the sandy egg yolk will adhere automatically.
