Chicken Wing Drumettes
2
– 3 Dried Chinese Black Mushrooms
2
Celery stalks
plus a few leaves if desired
¼
cup
Flour
1
Tbsp
Sugar
1
pinch
Salt
1
pinch
White Pepper
1
Tbsp
Chili Oil
optional
1/3
Cup
Rice Wine
2
Tbsp
Oyster Sauce
1
Tbsp

Instructions
Soak the mushrooms in hot water for an hour or so until softened, then slice the caps into thin strips, discarding the hard stem.
Cut the celery stalks into thin matchstick strips and coarsely chop the leaves, if using.
Mix rice wine with the chili oil, soy sauce and oyster sauce and set aside.
Season the chicken pieces with the sugar, salt and pepper, then toss them in the flour to coat, shaking off any excess.
Lay about three-quarter of the celery sticks at the bottom of a suitable steaming bowl and place the chicken pieces on top.
Scatter the sliced mushrooms over the chicken, along with the remaining celery, and drizzle it all with the rice wine mixture.
Steam the plate over high heat for about thirty minutes and then serve while still piping hot.
