Notes

  1.  Do not add cornflour slurry instead sprinkle a tsp of cornflour when the chicken is almost ready.
  2. Do not worry if a little liquid remains at the end of cooking time, this will quickly dry up.
  3. Adjust sauces and chillies to suit your taste.
  4. Serve hot with fried rice or noodles.
