Doritos hint of salt is the icing on the cake for this beauty. The iconic Irish takeaway gets a makeover - the chips are gone and are replaced with Doritos Hint of Salt.

Method

Slice the chicken thighs and toss them with the soy sauce, sesame oil and garlic. Set aside.

Mix the spices together and set aside.

For the sauce, heat the butter in a saucepan until foaming, then add the flour and curry powder. Whisk constantly until you have a paste, then gradually pour in the chicken stock and soy sauce. Add the Hot Salsa and reduce. Season with honey and sea salt.

Heat the oil in a wok and fry the vegetables until softened and cooked through.

Meanwhile, take the marinated chicken and mix through the egg white. Toss it with the cornstarch.

Heat a deep fat fryer to 180°C. Fry the chicken until crispy, then add it to the vegetables along with the spice mix.

Take the bag of Doritos, open it and add the salt and pepper chicken. Fold over the top to seal then give it all a big shake. Drizzle over or serve with the curry sauce.
