Ingredients
  • 1 chicken ( about 1 kg) - cut into small pieces - SEE NOTE
  • 4 Tblspn corn flour ( corn starch)
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1 large onion - sliced thinly
  • 2 Tblspn grated ginger - SEE NOTE
  • 10 cloves garlic - finely chopped
  • .
  • Sauce Ingredients. - to be mixed together
  • 2 tsp soya sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 Tblspn vinegar
  • 1/4 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp corn flour (corn starch)
  • .
  • NOTE:-
  • I happened to have a bag of chicken thighs in the freezer, so wanted to use what I had on hand. I cut most of the meat from the thighs, leaving some on the bone & cut the meat into chunks. I used the meaty bones in the recipe also. I used enough to make the 1 kg.
  • I did not have fresh ginger on hand so I used 1 tsp ginger paste instead & mixed it into the sauce ingredients.
  • I had found a jar of the ginger paste in the ethnic section at Super Store previously. I find it very handy. For me the 1 tsp was more than enough for the ginger flavor.

Directions
  1. Wash the chicken pieces & pat dry.
  2. Put the corn starch into a plastic bag & add the chicken.
  3. Shake well to coat. Set aside
  4. Heat oil in a wok.
  5. Shake off any excess corn starch & add chicken to oil, first over medium high heat & then lower heat to medium.
  6. Fry til golden & cooked through, cooking in 2 batches if needed
  7. Drain well & set aside.
  8. Spoon off 1/2 of the oil & add the onion, garlic & ginger to the remaining oil.
  9. Stir fry until the onion is transparent
  10. Add the chicken & toss in the onion mixture & then add the sauce ingredients.
  11. Stir fry until the sauce has thickened
  12. Transfer to a serving platter & garnish with spring onions.
  13. ENJOY

Ginger is my secret delight. It used to go bad in the frig so now I use what I need and freeze it. Just love that smell. (Love sugared ginger too)

I didn't know you could freeze it. Thanks for the tip. That's what had happened when I went to make this. Mine was bad, but the paste worked well. thanks for the great rating & flag


I peel fresh ginger and freeze it, then it is so easy to grate. This sounds tasty. Hope to give it a try sometime soon. Thanks for sharing. Peg
