Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the sesame oil with the garlic and ginger to infuse. In another bowl, stir the sauce until the sugar has dissolved.
After the hour, pour the cornflour over the chicken and mix well. This is done to remove the moisture so that the chicken browns well.
Pour oil into a saucepan and heat over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken wings and brown for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown on both sides.
Then pour in the sesame oil, add the garlic, chilli and ginger, and sauté for 2-3 minutes or until fragrant.
Pour in the sauce components, and cover for 5-7 minutes.
Add the basil and sauté over high heat for 1 minute.
The sauce will quickly caramelize
Notes
The browned chicken helps the sauce adhere, and it's really important to get a nice color.
