Chin Chin’s Chilli-salt Chicken Wings
  1. In a large heavy-based pot, bring stock to the boil. Add chicken wings and return to the boil. Reduce to a low simmer and cook for 5–10 minutes (the meat should be very tender). Take off the heat then remove wings from liquid and place on a tray. Allow to cool.

  2. Meanwhile, make the bandit sauce by pounding the lemongrass, ginger, galangal, garlic and chillies to make a paste. Put to one side, then in the same mortar and pestle start dissolving the palm sugar with a bit of lemon juice. Rub that in slowly, adding more juice as you go. When it dissolves into a paste, mix together with the pounded chilli mixture, kaffir lime leaf and a splash of fish sauce. Taste and add more fish sauce if you think it needs it.

  3. To finish the chicken wings, dip in fish sauce then tapioca flour, shaking off any excess. Deep-fry in hot oil until crisp and golden (about 10 minutes).

  4. Arrange on a serving plate, sprinkle with Sichuan salt and garnish with sliced chilli, coriander leaves and lemon wedges.

  5. Serve with ½ cup bandit sauce in a dipping bowl.
