Recipe tips The ideal soy sauce for this dish is one that’s labelled rich and dark. It will be thicker than the ordinary kind and impart a richer flavour. You could use light soy sauce instead, but the results won’t be the same. Ground ginger from a jar works better than fresh ginger for this recipe, but you could also try using fine strips of stem ginger and 1 tablespoon of stem ginger syrup instead of 1 tbsp of the honey. This recipe was tested using a 4–litre capacity air fryer. If yours has a much larger or smaller capacity, you will need to adjust the cooking times.
