The wings look great thanks so much for sharing your recipe . They really look delicious , I will try it.

I especially like the sounds it makes 😀

[@JesusSanchez-fo4en]

Awesome! just what I was looking for, simple and crunchy! not full of spices. few ingredients and still taste as chicken! nice job, thanks for sharing!

Thank you for sharing your video. That Chicken looks great! 💗

Fried chicken always makes my day. 😄

[@erliebernardo8144]

To get more garlic flavor over the chicken wings, you can add garlic powder to the starch mix before you coat the chicken. Try it!

[@MichelleTang]

That sounds like a good idea! I will try to do that the next time. 😀

[@cinnamonfitness2492]

That is true. I add tbp of garlic powder to 1/2 cup corn flour nd 1/2 cup plain flour. Its awesome. I also cook in airfryer, i just spray the powdered chicken with light oil.

[@MichelleTang]

@@cinnamonfitness2492 I have been thinking about getting an airfryer, since it uses less oil to fry things. I will try this out, when I do. 🙂

[@scopitha72]

Thanks for the tip. Yep, added garlic powder which was well received by my consumers (family)

Just simple and easy to make I definitely will try it I don't think we have potato starch here in Trinidad can corn starch work

[@MichelleTang]

I think it will work, but maybe the look and crunch will be different

[@deangelocapron3406]

@@MichelleTang this looks good

[@SK-kq7ex]

Looks yum. How long to fry n what temperature?

[@MichelleTang]

It is hard to give the exact time, as it depends on the amount of chicken you put in the oil at once and the size of the chicken wings. But if you fry them at 180 degrees and in small batches, they should be done, when they look golden brown like in the video. Just to be sure, you can take one out and cut it to check the inside.

[@SK-kq7ex]

Thnx

[@neiseri]

Making this tonight 🙃

[@MichelleTang]

That sounds nice ☺️

[@vynleshmynle7372]

could you find a smaller bowl to mix the wings in ?

[@MichelleTang]

I wanted to mix it in a rice bowl, but I thought that it would be a bit too small 😀

[@zalacasooknanan8080]

Very nice simple not too much seasonings if u don

[@sunnychekrs7597]

[@sunnychekrs7597]

I made this today and turned out so well, it was liked by the Missus and the kids. Thank you.

[@eddymadison9655]

Ohh it's like a Karaage style chicken wings (because of the potato starch)

[@MichelleTang]

Yes, it has a similar crunch and thin crust.

[@Talkofthetown321]

How many minutes frying in the pan?

[@MichelleTang]

I can't give you the exact time, as it can depend on your situation. But when it turns golden brown like in the video, it should be about done.

[@clarezellechristy2174]

Gonna make this for dinner

[@MichelleTang]

That sounds like a good idea! It has been a while since I last made them too. 🙂

[@luciaxx1722]

How did it taste ?

[@clarezellechristy2174]

@@luciaxx1722 😅😅😅 I think not really good

[@zalacasooknanan8080]

If u dont have potatoe starch here in trinidad what can u substitute with

[@MichelleTang]

You can also try corn starch, but I don't know if it will have the exact same result.

[@JohnSmith-gk5ov]

Whats the name of the starch mix?

[@MichelleTang]

It is potato starch, which you should be able to find at the supermarket.

[@jesseespinosa5295]

How long do you fry them? And at what temperature?

[@MichelleTang]

I have never timed it, so I cannot tell you the exact amount of time, but I always fry it until I get the golden brown color on the outside. I think it is 180° celcius, but I use the old-fashioned Chinese trick to heat up the oil until small bubbles form, if you put a wooden utensil, like chopsticks into the hot oil.

[@beybslifeintheus494]

Yummy chicken

[@MichelleTang]

I like it a lot too 😋

[@anjielynsalvador204]

Can i use corn starch instead of potato starch?

[@MichelleTang]

You can use corn starch too. It might turn out a bit different, but you will still get crispy chicken wings.

[@scopitha72]

Tried this yesterday. It was super duper licious except that I realised that to actually taste the tender juiciness, it has to be eaten hot.

[@MichelleTang]

It really is best to eat it immediately after frying. At our home, the plate with fried chicken wings is almost gone, before it hits the dinner table. 😁

[@scopitha72]

@@MichelleTang I wish but due to my super sensitive teeth, I can't eat too hot or too cold. Have to be room temperature. The recipe is superb nevertheless. Thank you.

[@MichelleTang]

@@scopitha72 I sometimes make too much and it is surprisingly tasty the next day too. I put it in the oven for a few minutes or cook it shortly in the ramen soup.

[@scopitha72]

@@MichelleTang Thanks for the tip. Should've thought of that. Will keep this in mind the next time I whip this up.

[@riyantimarlin7020]

Can I change potatoes starch to cornstarch?

[@MichelleTang]

I think it's possible. It might look different, but still crispy.

[@ahmeshmughal9472]

What oil did you use

[@MichelleTang]

It is sunflower oil

[@seliyaseliy32]

Can use corn or tapioka starch?

[@MichelleTang]

I don't know if it will give the same results as potato starch, since I have never tried it before, but I have read that they are great for frying food also.

[@yourvitamin9474]

hello i like it

Hello! 😃

[@carolynmoore339]

Can I use minced garlic ?

[@MichelleTang]

You can use that for the garlic flavor, but I like how the coarse garlic pieces taste like after frying.

Nice video . Guys if you have nothing nice to say , silence is key.

[@BrightonYoung]

I think you may want a bigger bowl haha

[@MichelleTang]

I know now that the shadow in a deep bowl doesn't make it that difficult to see what's in it on video. I also didn't prepare all ingredients and bowls beforehand and just cooked like I normally do, grabbing whatever that is near. 😁

[@Chellapark]

How if not have potato starch ??? Corn starch/sweet potato starch ????

[@MichelleTang]

I haven't tried that before, but I think other kinds of starch should work too.

[@Chellapark]

Michelle Tang thanks ..

[@justincase7937]

Why not use deeper bowls to work in?

[@MichelleTang]

I thought a big bowl would have too much shadow on the inside and make it less visible on camera. I also used a big glass bowl, but it reflected too much. So, I just used the dish that I normally use. It is not as bad as you think.

[@justincase7937]

@@MichelleTang Aaaah now that makes perfect sense. I wasn't thinking of recording conditions I was thinking more of making mixing easier. Great easy recipe! I will be quiet now!

[@MichelleTang]

@@justincase7937 It may look a bit uncomfortable and clumsy in the video, but it is because I didn't want anything to splash on the camera or anywhere else and the angles had to be right, so the hands and arms were not in the same position as we are used to. Normally, this dish works just fine, as we don't mind if the kitchen is a bit messy, while cooking. You are always welcome to give me suggestions on how to make my videos better.

It is really tasty, you should try it sometime 😃

[@shairaatilano4898]

Ingredients pls 🥰

[@MichelleTang]

I have added the ingredients list to the description box.

[@Layput]

You know, if you mixed the chicken wings in a much smaller bowl, they would taste better.

[@MichelleTang]

How would they taste better? Do you mean that the marinade would be absorbed more? Or that the batter would stick to the chicken wings more and less on the bowl?

[@Layput]

@@MichelleTang I'm sorry. I was just being sarcastic. You used a bowl that was tad too small when mixing.

[@MichelleTang]

@@Layput I always take things too seriously. 😀 But the bowl is what we normally use and it works fine. We were just a bit clumsier, since we needed to mix it, while making sure it is clearly visible on camera and trying to not splash anything on the lens.

[@Layput]

@@MichelleTang oh I see. So there really was a reason, not just a poor decision. Anyway, I tried your recipe because I wanted to eat fried chicken and popeye's was closed and I needed it fast. I thought that the salt you used was a lot so I reduced mine. Big mistake. You know you can use infrared thermometer to gauge oil temperature. I think the ideal temperature not to burn is 140 C

A shorter version is possible, but seeing and hearing the chicken wings get fried is something, I didn't want people to miss out on. 😁

[@auntiepoohnewpage]

That chicken ain’t done all the way

[@MichelleTang]

The meat was cooked inside, but it could be a bit more brown and a bit crunchier. So, you can leave it in the oil for a little bit longer if you like. 😀

[@dixienormous3262]

They're cooked perfectly. You want them to be juicy and flavorful, not dried out.

[@hermessupply9009]

1.5 tablespoons of salt n soy sauce. That's too salty.

[@MichelleTang]

To me, it was just right. Did you have a pile of salt on top on the tablespoon? It should be flat.

[@hermessupply9009]

@@MichelleTang Different people with different taste buds. Anyway thanks for the comment. Stay safe.

[@MichelleTang]

It could be that I wrote it down wrong and it should be 1.5 teaspoon of salt instead. I will try to make the recipe again soon and see which is better.

[@dannielcohen6784]

It does look that way 🙂

[@tammeyj1958]

Video is too slow

[@MichelleTang]

Some people enjoy watching and hearing food getting fried and some people want to learn the recipe quickly. It is hard to find the right balance. 🙂 I am considering making a short and a long version, but it would take a lot of time.

[@tonirandall6835]

Too slow. Bowl too small. Must we watch each wing chopped up?

Dear GAWD get a bigger bowl!!

[@MichelleTang]

If you watch the video a few more times, I might earn enough to buy a bigger bowl 😁

[@felix41ff]

Wow very boring and she needs to get bigger bowls for mixing

[@MichelleTang]

Back then, I thought you wouldn't be able to see anything in a big bowl, because of the shadow. I also enjoy listening to the sounds, kind of like ASMR. It is sometimes tricky to balance being short and strict to the point and have long bits of sound for the people who enjoy listening to cutting ingredients sound and frying sound.

[@felix41ff]

Yeah sometimes you just do what’s best.🙏🙏 my apologies 😔😔

[@MichelleTang]

It is okay. 🙂 It is always good to hear feedback on what people think of my videos.

[@bradric5602]

Seriously WORK ON UR EDITING!!! Watching ur worker guy chop garlic for 3 mins is Ridiculous

[@MichelleTang]

I personally like listening to chopping and frying sounds, so it is never too long for me. 😃 But I am always open for suggestions, so how do you want me to edit it? Fast forwarding the cutting, so that you don't hear the sounds, or just showing one clove of garlic and in a blink of an eye, ending up with a lot of minced garlic? And the "worker guy" is actually my mom. 🙂
