Leave aside the chicken mixture for an hour to marinate, preferably in a refrigerator. Peel the potatoes and grate into thick shreds using a vegetable grater. Add half a cup of cornflour and mix well. Line a six-inch diameter wire sieve with a quarter portion of the potato mixture and press another sieve of the same size on top.

Reheat the oil and deep-fry the marinated chicken for three to four minutes or until golden brown in colour. Drain on absorbent paper. Heat two tablespoons of oil in a wok or a pan, add the ginger and garlic and stir fry for a minute. Stir in the cornflour mixture and cook for a minute more or until the sauce starts to thicken. Add the fried chicken and honey and stir well to coat. Transfer the chicken into the crisp potato nests. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds and serve hot, garnished with the reserved spring onion greens.
