Ingredients:

For the Chicken:

• 500g boneless chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 2 tablespoons cornflour
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon Wok & Roll Chilli Chicken Masala
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• Oil for frying

For the Sauce:

• 2 tablespoons oil
• 1 tablespoon garlic, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon ginger, finely chopped
• 2 green chilies, slit
• 1 medium onion, cubed
• 1 medium capsicum, cubed
• 2-3 tablespoons Wok & Roll Chilli Chicken Masala
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon vinegar
• 1 teaspoon chili sauce (optional for extra spice)
• 1 teaspoon sugar (optional for balance)
• 1/4 cup water or chicken stock (for a saucy version)
• Spring onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Marinate and Fry the Chicken

1. In a bowl, mix cornflour, all-purpose flour, egg, Wok & Roll Chilli Chicken Masala, and salt to form a smooth batter.
2. Add the chicken pieces to the batter, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for 15-20 minutes.
3. Heat oil in a deep pan or wok over medium-high heat.
4. Fry the marinated chicken pieces in batches until golden brown and crispy. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

2. Prepare the Sauce

1. Heat oil in a large wok or frying pan over medium heat.
2. Add chopped garlic, ginger, and slit green chilies. Stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
3. Toss in cubed onions and capsicum. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, keeping the vegetables slightly crisp.

3. Flavor Explosion

1. Lower the heat slightly and add Wok & Roll Chilli Chicken Masala, soy sauce, vinegar, and chili sauce (if using). Mix well to combine.
2. Add sugar for a hint of sweetness if you prefer a balanced flavor profile.
3. If making a saucy version, pour in water or chicken stock and simmer for 2 minutes.

4. Combine Everything

1. Add the fried chicken to the pan and toss to coat it evenly with the sauce.
2. Cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. For a saucy version, let the chicken simmer briefly in the sauce.

5. Garnish and Serve

1. Sprinkle chopped spring onions over the dish for a fresh, vibrant touch.
2. Serve hot with steamed rice, fried rice, or noodles for a complete meal.

Pro Tips for the Perfect Chilli Chicken:

• For a vegetarian twist, swap chicken with paneer or mushrooms.
• Adjust the spice level by varying the amount of green chilies and chili sauce.
• Cook veggies quickly over high heat to retain their crunch and color.
