The original recipe calls for frying for the chicken twice. I fried it just once and still got a very crispy fried chicken.

Marinate chicken in this rub: > 1 medium onion, grated > 5-6 cloves of garlic, minced > Salt and pepper to taste.
Rub the above mixture all over the cleaned and dried chicken drumsticks and marinate in the refrigerator for 6 hrs or overnight.
In a pan, Take 3 tbsp vegetable or olive oil. As it heats up, Add 4 chopped scallion white and 5-6 chopped garlic cloves. Saute for a min.
Add > 6 tbsp ketchup > 2 tbsp honey > juice of one lemon > 1 tbs korean chilli flakes(I used paprika powder) > salt to taste. Mix well. add a spoon of water or oil if it gets too thick. Turn off heat and keep aside.
In a wide bowl mix: > 3/4 cup cornstarch > 1/2 cup flour > 1/2 tsp salt > 1 tsp sugar > 1/2 tsp pepper powder > 1/2 tsp baking powder
Heat oil for deep frying the drumsticks. When oil is hot enough, Add 3/4 cup of ice cold water to the Batter mix and make a thin batter. Dip and coat each drumstick in the cold batter and deep fry till golden brown and crispy.
Warn the Glaze and toss the fried chicken drumsticks. Toss to coat all over.
Garnish with Dry roasted white sesame seeds and chopped scallion greens.
