Cooking
Onions cut into small strips
And soak in cold water. In the water I put a few ice cubes (the Chinese are often soaked chopped vegetables). In this case, the bow will become more juicy and give too much bitterness.
Chicken fillet cut into small pieces, approximately the same size so that they are equally fried, and lightly roll in flour.
To make the batter: mix the egg with the starch if the mixture turns thick, you can dilute with cold water until the dough consistency for pancakes. Each piece dipped in batter.
Fry in hot oil until Golden brown. Strongly fry do not need, the pieces need to be air.
Be sure to put on a sieve or a napkin to glass excess oil.
Here are the fillets came to me. Here the fillets in 2 times more than in the recipe because I was cooking for 8 people.
In a frying pan, heat vegetable oil (1 tbsp) and fry a little chopped garlic and pepper. China chef for hot dishes cut vegetables into a diamond.
Add Hoi Sin sauce. Now this sauce is sold in stores (at least in the far East this is no problem).
Here is the package of sauce that I used. But cooking it yourself, mixing the taste of water, soy sauce, starch (for thickness), sugar, a little honey, crushed coriander, black pepper, lemon juice, chopped garlic and ginger.
In a heated sauce to put the chicken, add the cashew nuts, soy sauce (most importantly, him not to overdo it, if you use purchase Hoi Sin) and sesame oil ( I have a native Chinese). Add to taste chopped chilli, I used a little homemade pepper, don't know his name - very hot.
In another pan in vegetable oil to fry our soaked onions until Golden brown.
On a dish lay onions on top of chicken, garnish and serve hot.
Bon appetit!!!
