- 2 tablespoons lemongrass (grated )
- 2 stalks lemongrass (pounded)
- 1 1/2 lbs (750g) small chicken wings (party wings)
- 3 tablespoons fish sauce

Instructions
- 1
Use a grater, such as a Microplane, to grate the white part of the lemongrass until you have about 2 tablespoons. Keep the rest of the lemongrass and cut it into 4-inch (10 cm) lengths. Use the back of a knife to pound and smash the lemongrass to release its aroma and flavor.

Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Transfer the wings to a large Ziploc bag and add all the ingredients. Combine everything well, ensuring the wings are nicely coated with the fish sauce and lemongrass mixture. Let them marinate in the fridge overnight.
