Ingredients

4 portions
  • 1/3 cups cornmeal
  • 1/2 cups flour
  • 1/2 cups water
  • 1 tablespoon chili flakes
  • 1 chicken breast, cut into cubes
  • oil
  • 1 cup pineapple juice, for the sweet and sour sauce
  • 1/2 cups sugar, for the sweet and sour sauce
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar, for the sweet and sour sauce
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup, for the sweet and sour sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce, for the sweet and sour sauce
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch, for the sweet and sour sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chili flake, for the sweet and sour sauce
  • salt and pepper
  • black sesame seed, to decorate

Preparation

In a bowl, mix the corn flour with the wheat flour, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper and water.
Cover the raw chicken breast in the previous mix and fry for 5 minutes in hot oil until golden and puffy. Remove the chicken from the oil and transfer to a plate with absorbent paper towels to drain off the excess oil.
In a sauce pan, heat the pineapple juice with the sugar, soy sauce, ketchup, red pepper flakes and cornstarch. Mix and cook for 10 minutes or until lightly thickened.
Pour the sauce over the fried chicken, mix and serve warm with black sesame seeds.

PRESENTATION

Serve with rice and a refreshing drink.

TIPS

Substitute water, for sparkling water to make a fluffy batter.
