To get the signature “zingy” taste he begins by adding pepper and tabasco to his mayonnaise.
Rob also adds a total of eight spices to his flour mix to give the batter a signature KFC taste as well as adding buttermilk to his egg wash to keep the chicken extra moist.
After frying the chicken, he adds the mayo as a base to a corn tortilla that has been microwaved for 30 seconds.
After applying the lettuce and tomato garnishes and the chicken, he folds into a wrap before wrapping the bottom in tin foil, making it easier to eat.

Rob says: “This is probably twice the size of a KFC Twister but there’s nothing wrong with that, we’re going big time with these bad boys.”
After tasting it he adds: “Wow that is as close as you’re going to get, I’m so proud of myself.
“Flavour wise it is spot on and these are really simple to do. They’re bigger obviously than the bought one, you just have to taste it to believe it.
“These are that damn good, give them a try, you’re gonna love them.”
