ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the potato rounds on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, 5ml of the smoked paprika, and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
TOASTY
Place the chopped almonds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside. Place the diced cucumber into a bowl with the white wine vinegar, and seasoning. Cover with cold water until submerged and set aside.
FIRST THE EGG, THEN THE FLOUR
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towel. Prepare a shallow dish with 1 egg and a splash of water. Mix until combined. Prepare a second shallow dish with the flour mix & the NOMU rub (seasoned lightly). Coat the chicken wings in the egg first, and then the flour mix.
SPREAD YOUR WINGS & FRY
Return the pan to medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, add the coated chicken wings and fry until crispy and cooked through, 6-8 minutes (flipping halfway). Drain on paper towel and place in a bowl.
SWEET-HOT OIL
Return the pan (wiped down) to medium-high heat. Add the sweet vinegar, the remaining smoked paprika, and the chilli oil (to taste). Simmer until thickening, 1-2 minutes. Loosen with 1 tbsp of water. Remove from the heat and add to the bowl of chicken wings. Toss to coat and set aside.
FRESHNESS
Drain the pickled cucumbers from the pickling liquid and place into a salad bowl. Toss with the rinsed leaves, ½ the toasted nuts, the drained feta, a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. Set aside.
TIME TO EAT!!
Serve up the golden smoked paprika potatoes and side with the crisp, sticky hot honey wings. Pile the fresh salad alongside and garnish with the remaining nuts.
