Special equipment:
a 7-quart air fryer- In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with about 1/2 cup curry paste until well coated. Sprinkle with the rice flour and baking powder and toss again to coat evenly.

Increase the temperature to 425 degrees F (or the highest setting) and bake until the skin is crispy and brown and the wings are cooked through, about 5 minutes more.
- Remove the wings from the air fryer and transfer to the bowl with the sauce; toss well.
- Transfer the wings to a platter and drizzle with a touch of honey. Serve immediately.
