Chef tips
To achieve the perfect crunch, make sure the chicken cubes are dry before coating in cornstarch. Fry in small batches to keep the oil temperature from dropping. Swap the sugar for honey or silan for a richer sweetness. Top with toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions for a vibrant and impressive presentation.
