1 tbsp soya sauce
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp sesame oil

2 tbsp cornflour

Filling:

You may use any alternative filling of your choice, e.g. prawn and pork paste, etc.

Method

1. Remove the 2 bones in the flat portion of the chicken wing:
- use a small knife to cut around the top of the wing to release the bones
- cut between the top of the bones to separate them.
- push down on the smaller bone, twist and remove the bone.
- use the knife to scrape down the larger bone, twist and remove the bone.

2. Make the filling. Mix together chopped chorizo and cooked glutinous rice. You may use any alternative filling, e.g. prawn and pork paste, etc.

3. Stuff 2 teaspoonful of filling into the pocket of the chicken wing. Use a toothpick to thread through the skin to secure the filling.
