I have been sitting here and thinking what to write in my new post. And nothing comes to my mind, anyway nothing special.
Ofcourse there is every day things like yesterday it was my MIL's b'day.
She celebrated her 75 th b'day.
She did a small party yesterday, and this saturday she is doing a dinner, which I am so so looking forward.
Actually she doesn't look her age, she is really looking young for her age and she don't behave like a 75.
You can talk to her, joke to her, my daughter have so much fun with her hen she goes there.
And ofcourse MIL and I join up when it comes to tease FIL.
If some outsiders hear us how much we tease him they will think we hate the fellow, which is not true, he just always falls for our tricks.
We have not had a chinese take away for atleast 3 years. The main reason, I make a lot of chinese dishes at home and I have noticed when ever we took a takeaway we all moaned home made is better.
I am sure if I was living in UK i would go for takeaway more often as I remember the chinese food thee is more delicous there then here.

Chicken breast 500 gm .
Flour
Salt and pepper
Oil for deepfrying.
Few spring onions sliced
1 tbsp ginger finley cut
1 tbsp garlic finley cut.
1 tbsp honey
2 tsp corn flour.
1 tbsp lemon juice.
2 tbsp chinese chilli sauce ( more if you like it hot)
Few green chillies sliced ( optional)
2 to 3 tbsp soy sauce ( add according to your taste, not too much as the dish might be too salty)
Re Edited: I add 200ml water if you want you dish more saucy add more water but then make sure you add a bit more of the soy sauce etc for taste and also add more conr flour so that the sauce get thicker.
1. Cut chicken into serving size pieces. Coat chicken pieces lightly with flour which has been seasoned with salt and pepper.
2. Deep fry the chicken in batches.
3. Now heat a wok add 2 absp oil and sauted the onions , ginger, garlic and chillies. For few minutes.
Add honey, stir for one minute. Add combined corn flour, water, chilli sauce and soy sauce. Stir untill sauce boils and thickens.
4. Add chicken , toss in sauce for three minutes ot untill chicken is heated through.
Add few more sliced spring onions and serve with rice.
You can see from the first picture that I have made the chicken again and posted here, actuallyI make this chicken so often these days as they are so yumm.

ReplyDeleteI found you on pinterest. I am going to be married and practicing my cooking. I was originally going to try something Indian but I think I will try this one. You seem to be a good-homemaker, the directions are so clear, I will tell you what I think. Thank you for your blog, keep posting more recipes!
