Rinse rice until water runs clear. Combine rice with 240ml water in a saucepan. Dissolve 60g caster sugar in 120ml hot water, stir in 120ml rice vinegar, pour over 240g cubed daikon radish, rest 15 minutes. Whisk together 60g potato starch, 60g flour, 10g baking powder, salt, pepper. Pour 200ml ice water into dry mix, stir into thin lumpy batter. Whisk gochujang, ketchup, honey, brown sugar, 20ml rice vinegar, grated garlic.

Bring rice to a boil over high heat, cover, reduce to lowest heat, cook 12 minutes. Remove from heat, rest covered 5 minutes until tender and liquid absorbed.

Fry 1
Heat 1000ml neutral oil to 160C in a heavy pot or large Dutch oven. Coat chicken wings in batter until just dredged. Lower wings in two batches, fry 7–8 minutes per batch until pale and just cooked through. Lift onto a rack, rest 3 minutes.

Fry 2
Raise oil to 190C. Double-fry wings in two batches, 4–5 minutes per batch until shatter-crisp and deep golden. Lift onto rack to drain.
