Sweet & Sour Chicken

Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces.

In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with an egg and salt. Mix well.

Add cornflour and soy sauce to the chicken and mix until everything is well-coated. Set aside to marinate.

Peel and thinly slice the onion. Thinly slice the red pepper.

In a pan with a little oil, sauté the sliced onion and red pepper until softened. Remove from the pan and set aside.

In the same pan, create the sauce by combining ketchup, brown sugar, soy sauce, and grated ginger. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the sauce simmers.

Return the cooked onions and peppers to the pan with the sauce and mix to combine.

Coat the marinated chicken pieces in a mixture of rice flour and plain flour.

Deep fry the coated chicken in hot oil until golden brown and crispy. This should take about 3-4 minutes.

Remove the fried chicken from the oil and add it to the pan with the sauce and vegetables. Toss everything together until the chicken is fully coated.

Serve the sweet and sour chicken over a bed of steamed rice and garnish with chopped spring onions.
