This supposed to be one of my dishes for an upcoming cooking contest, but apparently it resembles a “clubbing” dish which commonly found in the menu of pubs and clubs. :D
Well, I still like it as my home cooked. It looks great on the plate and delicious to eat. Try it!

(3) Deep fry the cashew nuts briefly to enhance the aroma. Set aside.
(4) When chicken lollipops are ready, coat chicken lollipops with potato starch, followed by egg mixture, and dredge in potato starch again. Let the coated chicken lollipops rest for 5-10 minutes.
(5) Heat wok/ deep fryer with oil over medium-high heat (about 180deg celcius), deep fry chicken lollipops. Repeat the frying process once more to enhance its crispiness. Leave chicken lollipops on the mesh strainer to drain out excessive oil. Set aside.
(6) Sauce cooking: Heat wok with oil, sauce garlic and dried chili. Add light soy sauce and water. Add vinegar, sugar and let it simmer till sauce thickens a little. Add honey, and more water if necessary. Let it bring to a boil, return fried chicken lollipops and toss them in thickened sauce. Dish up, wrap the bone tip part with aluminium foil.

(3)将腰果过油以增加香气。备用。
(4)当棒棒鸡准备好后,将每个棒棒鸡粘上一层地瓜粉,接着粘鸡蛋液,再粘粉。让裹好粉棒棒鸡静置5-10分钟。
(5)用中高火(约180摄氏度)热油,炸棒棒鸡。重复一次油炸过程以增强其松脆度。起锅,用过滤网隔出多余油份后,备用。
(6)酱汁烹调:热锅,炒香蒜米和干辣椒。加入酱清和水。加入醋,糖,慢煮至酱汁开始浓稠。加入蜂蜜,必要时加多点水。让酱汁煮沸,加入炸棒棒鸡和酱汁混合。起锅,把鸡骨末端用锡箔纸包好,盛盘,淋上剩余的酱汁。加入腰果,点缀后,上桌。
