2. Heat cooking oil in a large frying over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken pieces and fry until cooked through, about 7 minutes on each side. Do not overcrowd the chicken. Repeat with the remaining batch until all the chicken pieces are cooked. Set them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
3. To make the sauce, heat a small pan over medium heat. Add the butter into the pan, once melted, add in the ginger and garlic. Stir for about a minute, then add in the honey, hot sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, vinegar and water. Bring the sauce to a boil, stirring constantly. Next, add in the corn flour and continue cooking while stirring until the sauce thickens - about 30 seconds. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and set aside.
4. Transfer the chicken wings into a large bowl. Pour the warm sauce over the chicken wings and gently toss to coat. Sprinkle the chicken wings with freshly chopped spring onions, if desired and serve.
*Tip: Make sure you have plenty of napkins in hand!
