  3. Add the vegetable oil into a big pot on a high heat, and while that’s coming to a boil, prepare the chicken by dipping in the egg wash, then rolling in a bowl of cornflour before CAREFULLY placing the chicken in the hot oil. Should be able to do 5 or 6 at a time.

  4. For the orange sauce, grate the oranges then juice them. Get your marmalade dishes out ready

  5. Add the juice, rind and marmalade to a pan, and bring to a low boil on a medium high heat. Add the cornflour and vinegar. It should reduce down to thick orangey goo. Marvellous!
