Ingredients

Red spicy sauce

  • 0.5 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp cooking wine e.g. Shaoxing wine or mirin
  • 1 tbsp gochujang
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce e.g. sriracha
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp honey

Soy garlic sauce

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp cooking wine e.g. Shaoxing wine or mirin

Honey butter sauce

  • 4 tbsp butter

  • 50 g white sugar
  • 2 tsp soy sauce
  • 2 tsp honey

Instructions

  • I recommend making one default serving of sauce per 1-2 servings of chicken (provided that you are following my Korean Fried Chicken recipe). If making multiple sauces, scale down the amount accordingly.
  • The steps for each sauce are almost identical.

Red spicy suace / Soy garlic sauce

  • Mix the ingredients of your chosen sauce together in a bowl.
  • Transfer to a pot and heat up over low to medium heat.
  • Leave to simmer for 3-4 minutes, then set aside and leave to cool.

Honey butter sauce

  • Add the butter to a pot over low to medium heat.
  • Once it melted, add the garlic and stir until fragrant.
  • Add soy sauce, garlic, and sugar until the latter is fully dissolved.
  • Add honey and stir until well-integrated.
  • Take off the stove and let cool.
