In a bowl mix the egg whites, all-purpose flour, cornstarch, water, salt, and vegetable oil mix until well combined.

Prepare a frying pan or skillet with about two inches of oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is at smoking point, deep fry the chicken pieces until golden brown. Do this in batches so that the chicken pieces will cook evenly. When all the chicken pieces are done, set them aside on a plate lined with a paper towel so it can absorb the excess oil.
