Homemade Wings

A quick and easy way to make fried wings without deep frying it in oil.

*of course this is possible if you have an air fryer😅

Honey-glazed wings

Ingredients:

1 pack of chicken wings (I bought a 1.5 lb pack and it had about 13 wings)

Tempura flour (can use regular flour)

  • For marination:

3 small onions

2 tbsp of garlic

4 tbsp of mirim (can use white wine)

  • For sauce:

1 1/2 tbsp of sugar (I used brown)

2 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp water

2 tbsp vinegar

1 tbsp honey (I used agave syrup and it gave the same glaze feel like honey would)

Cooking Instructions:

  1. Wash the wings in cold water
  2. Dice the onions and garlic very fine and mix in the mirim (this is the marination
  3. Marinate the wings for 30 minutes in the onion and garlic mixture
  4. To make the sauce, mix the soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, water, and honey
  5. Once the wings are done marinating, add enough tempura flour to lightly cover the wings
    Cook the wings in the air fryer for 25 minutes (I have a preset option for chicken on my air fryer so I chose that, but the temperature was 400 degrees)*every 5-10 minutes flip the wings over so it cooks properly all over
    Heat a pan to cook the wings with the sauce. Once the pan is heated, pour the sauce and wait for it to starting boiling
    Add in the wings to the sauce and mix until all the wings are covered in sauce

My favorite food….

Hello from KOREA!! While being in Korea, this post seems the most appropriate to post while I am here.

In addition to trying new places to eat, I enjoy cooking as well. One of my favorite foods and the first thing I eat whenever I arrive in Korea is ddeokbokgi 떡볶이or Korean spicy rice cakes. It’s also something I make when I crave something spicy or just want some soul food.

Making ddeokbokgi isn’t hard so I thought I’ll share my recipe:
