Black Pepper Powder - 5gm

Finely chopped ginger - 10gm

Finely chopped garlic - 10g

All purpose flour - 15gm

Oil for deep frying - 500ml

Green chilli sauce - 10ml

Red chilli sauce - 10ml

Finely chopped ginger - 10gm

1. Mix the soy sauce, green chilli sauce, red chilli sauce, salt, pepper, ginger, garlic, and egg whites in a mixing bowl.

2. Add the chicken leg, massage it well, and leave it to marinate for as long as it takes to prep the ingredients for the sauce.

3. The cooking will take place quickly on high heat. So, all your ingredients should be prepped and at hand before the cooking starts.

4. To make the sauce mix, combine red chilli sauce, ketchup, and dark soy sauce in a bowl.

5. Heat the kadai until very hot. Add vegetable oil and let it start smoking.

6. Add the diced onions and cook for one minute.

7. Add the ginger and fry for 30 seconds.

8. Add garlic and fry for 30 seconds.

9. Add sugar and let it melt and caramelise—about 30 seconds.

10. Next add the salt, ground pepper, the sauce mix and the chicken stock.

11. Reduce for a few minutes until the sauce gets syrupy and sticky. Turn off the heat.

12. Heat oil in a kadai or wok until it is very hot (200ºC).

13. Just before frying, add the plain flour and cornstarch (cornflour) to the marinated chicken and mix to form a dry batter. Adding too much liquid in the batter or the lollipops won't stay crisp.

14. Add the lollipops to the hot oil, taking care not to overcrowd the pan. Fry in two batches if required.

15. The oil temperature will drop to about 150ºC. The rest of the frying should take place at this temperature to make sure the chicken cooks all the way without getting too brown outside.

16. Drain on a basket lined with paper towels.

17. Re-heat the sauce if it is too cold, and turn off the heat. Now add the chicken lollipops to the pan and toss to coat it evenly.
