Hongkong Sweet n Sour Chicken (servings 4 persons)

Ingredients

Chicken (400gms) boneless cut as small to medium pieces (little smaller than a medium)

Eggs 2

Sugar

Tomato puree or paste

Vinegar

Soya sauce

Onion

Capsicum

Salt to taste

Method

To make this recipe I will teach you in 3 steps,

First - how to fry the chicken

Take a bowl, break 2 eggs, add 1 teaspoon of sugar, salt to taste and ½ tablespoon of cornflour. Mix this batter nicely and place your boneless chicken and mix all of it.

Heat oil in a wok or a kadai to very high sizzling temperature.

Now, spread a lot of cornflour over a plate. Pick chicken one by one from the batter mix and drop them in the cornflour spread over the plate to have a coat of cornflour.

As each one of them gets its coat put them in the oil and fry them till its golden brown in color. Once all fried keep them in aside.

Second – preparing the sauce

Take another bowl, pour ¾ cup of tomato puree, 1 tablespoon of vinegar and 1 ½ tablespoon of soya sauce, mix them and keep them aside.

Third – the finale

Cut 2 medium sized onions into thicker slices, so, it means slices to be 3 times bigger than your normal curry cut onions.

Same way cut 2 big capsicum into bigger flatter pieces.

Put 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok and stir the onions in the oil for 30 sec, it should not try brown, add the capsicum and stir for another 20sec and then add the sauce which you prepared in the second step. Stir all for 1 min and add the fried chicken which you prepared in the step one.

Stir all of them for another 2 mins adding salt to taste, so that the chicken is nicely coated in the sauce.

Optional you can add a pinch of ajino moto.

Voila, you prepared an astonishing dish

Bon Appetite!!
