INGREDIENTS :-

Boneless chicken breast, cut into small cubes :250 gm
1 tbsp. corn flour
1  egg (beaten)
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. black pepper powder
Kashmiri chili powder :1 tsp
pinch of sugar

1 tsp. sugar
½ cup water or chicken stock
1 tsp. corn flour mixed with water to form a light paste
1 whole red chili, slit
1 green chili, chopped
½ tsp. black pepper

some spring onion for garnishing

INSTRUCTIONS :-
Heat the oil, then fry chicken until golden, do not over fry otherwise the chicken will turn hard. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan with little oil (keep if there is excess oil) add the whole red chili, ginger and garlic pastes followed by the spring onions and chopped green chili. Fry for a minute then add the tomato paste, ketchup, sugar,  salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes, then add the water/stock. Let it come to a simmer, lower the heat and add the corn flour paste. The sauce will instantly start to thicken. Once it is of a good thick consistency, add the fried chicken and a splash of soya sauce. Stir together and adjust salt, simmer for 3 more minutes on low heat, then turn off the heat and  garnish with some chopped spring onions.
