Korean Fried Chicken, also known as KFC, is a popular Korean dish that is known for its crispy texture and flavorful sauce. Here is a recipe for making Korean Fried Chicken:

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs of chicken wings or drumettes
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup cornstarch
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 cup water
• Oil for frying

For the Sauce:

• 1/4 cup gochujang (Korean chili paste)
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup honey
• 2 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 tbsp grated ginger
• 1/4 cup water

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, salt, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika. Gradually stir in the water until a smooth batter is formed.

2. Dip the chicken wings or drumettes in the batter, making sure they are fully coated.

3. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan or wok over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F. Fry the chicken in batches for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

4. To make the sauce, whisk together the gochujang, ketchup, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger in a small bowl.

5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the water and cornstarch until smooth.
