About

This is a riot of flavours, rich and filling. The incredibly moreish crispy chicken is tossed in cornflour before being fried, resulting in a golden crunchy outer coating that contrasts beautifully with the silky noodles. It is all topped with a burnt garlic oil, which is often used on ramen dishes and brings a slight bitterness to the party.
