GOLDEN FRAGRANT CHICKEN WINGS

(Kam Heong Chicken 金香鸡)

Hi Everyone!

In this video I am going to share with you a Golden Fragrant Chicken Wings (Kam Heong Chicken 金香鸡) recipe.

Kam Heong Chicken is a delicious and aromatic dish originating from Cantonese cuisine. The name "Kam Heong" translates to "Golden Fragrance," referring to the flavorful and fragrant combination of spices used in this particular recipe.

Recipe Notes:

I used chicken wings for this recipe. You could use any parts of the chicken that you prefer. This recipe is suitable with clams, prawns or crabs too.
I used BABA’s meat curry powder. This curry powder should be readily available in your country but you could also use any types of curry powder that is available to you.
I used 4 red chilies in this recipe. The red chili is sliced and then deseeded to reduce the heat. You could also retain the seed if you prefer or you could also use bird eye chilies instead.
The Golden Fragrant Paste can be keep in the fridge for a month if stored properly.

Remove from heat.
To prepare the golden fragrant chicken wings, marinate the chicken wings with light soya sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil and corn flour. Place the chicken wings marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. After 1 hour remove the chilled chicken wings marinate from the refrigerator and let it rest to return to room temperature.

Add plain water and stir well to combine thoroughly. Cook until the sauce reaches desired thickness, some might like it drier or slightly saucy.
