  • Sea salt, for sprinkling
  • Vegetable oil, for deep-frying

Coating

  • 1 cup 1 cup cornflour (cornstarch) Essential for crispy coating.

Sauce Ingredients

  • 0.25 cup ¼ cup gochujang Adds a spicy-sweet flavor.
  • 0.5 cup ½ cup barbecue sauce
  • 100 g 100g (3.5 oz) unsalted butter, melted For richness.
  • cup ⅓ cup whole egg mayonnaise For creaminess.
  • cup ⅓ cup sour cream Adds tang.
  • ¼ cup ¼ cup buttermilk For moisture.

  • 2 tbsp 2 tbsp finely chopped parsley For color and flavor.
  • 0.5 tsp ½ tsp salt

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Begin by preparing the chicken wings. Rinse them under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
  • Lay the wings in a single layer and sprinkle generously with sea salt.
  • In a large bowl, add the cornflour and toss the salted wings until evenly coated.

Cooking

  • Pour enough vegetable oil into a deep pot or fryer to submerge the wings completely and heat to the correct temperature.
  • Once the oil is hot, carefully add the wings in batches and fry until golden brown and fully cooked.
  • Transfer the crispy wings to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.

Sauce Preparation

  • In a bowl, combine gochujang, barbecue sauce, melted unsalted butter, mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, salt, and black pepper.
  • After frying, let the wings rest briefly, then add them to the sauce mixture and toss until well-coated.

Serving

  • Plate the wings and garnish with finely sliced spring onions and chopped parsley.
  • Serve immediately while warm and crispy.

Notes

For extra crunch, toss the wings in more cornflour before frying. Use a thermometer to check oil temperature for best results.
