Provided by gmasusan

Number Of Ingredients 17

SAUCE:
50 grams Fry's chicken style strips, or similar, frozen
1 tablespoon cornflour, (cornstarch)
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
50 milliliters water
25 grams breadcrumbs, I like to use freshly made from stale bread here, or panko.
2 tablespoons almonds, chopped
Extra cornflour to coat
Shredded lettuce to serve
Vegetable oil to fry
2 tablespoons cornflour
3 tablespoons water
1 tablespoons vegan butter
4 teaspoons soy sauce
1 1/2 cups water

Steps:

  • First toast the chopped almonds in a wok until lightly golden and fragrant. Set aside and give the wok a wipe with a dry towel as you'll be using it to fry later. In a small saucepan bring the 1 1/2 cups of water for the sauce to the boil. Add the frozen chicken strips and lightly boil with the lid on for 3 minutes. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon or a couple of forks and drain on a clean kitchen towel. Do not dump the water! Add the vegan butter and soy sauce to the chicken stock and heat until the butter melts then turn off the heat. In another saucepan mix the cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water until smooth then slowly add the chicken soy stock until all is added. Heat and stir until thick and glossy. Check seasoning, turn off heat and set aside. In a small bowl add the cornflour, baking powder, xanthan gum and whisk. Add the water and vegetable oil and whisk really well until it is smooth and really thick. Toss the drained chicken strips into some more cornflour, then coat them in the batter then into the breadcrumbs. It's easiest to have one hand for the batter and the other hand for the breadcrumbs here. Keep going until all the strips are coated and place them on a plate ready to fry. Heat about an inch or two of vegetable oil in the wok you used to toast the almonds until it is very hot. Gently place the breaded chicken into the oil and fry until crisp and golden on both sides. Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat until all the chicken is fried. Reheat the gravy and give it a whisk- if it has thickened too much, you can also add a bit more water. Place some shredded lettuce on a plate, top with the fried chicken then spoon over the gravy generously. Sprinkle over the toasted almonds and serve immediately.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this recipe with tofu instead of chicken. It was still really good!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken didn't come out crispy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I was able to balance it out by adding a little bit of lemon juice. Overall, it was a good recipe.
