Korean cuisine isn’t shy about using big, bold and outrageous flavours. Tonight's dish is no exception. It takes a cue from the Asian nation’s famed version of fried chicken, using a sweet, spicy and savoury sauce to give them major personality. To complete the vibrant array on this plate, we’re adding a crisp slaw salad and a drizzle of creamy mayo.
