HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN MANCHURIAN

Step 1 / 4

Chicken Manchurian recipe is a simple yet delectable Chinese recipe, which can be prepared in the restaurant style at the comfort of your home. You just need a few ingredients in place and you are done! Here’s how you prepare this simple recipe. Take a bowl and add corn flour, flour, salt and pepper along with the beaten egg in it. Mix all these ingredients properly and prepare a batter. Next, dip the chicken pieces in the batter one by one. Make sure it is properly coated.


Step 2 / 4

Meanwhile, heat oil in a pan over medium flame. Once the oil is sufficiently hot, place the coated chicken pieces in the oil and deep fry till they turn golden brown in colour. Once done, drain the excess oil and keep aside till further use.


Step 3 / 4

Now, to prepare the manchurian sauce, heat oil in another pan over medium flame. Once the oil is hot enough, add the garlic and ginger in it. Fry till it becomes slightly brown in colour. Now add in green chilies and cilantro leaves. Saute these for about a minute or so.

Then, bring the flame to low and add in the chicken stock, soya sauce, salt, sugar and pepper. Allow this mixture to simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Once done, add in corn flour along with water in it and bring the mixture to a boil. The last step is to place the fried chicken pieces into the manchurian sauce. Bring the flame to medium low and allow the dish to cook for close to 5 minutes. Once done, turn off the flame and transfer the Chicken Manchurian into a serving bowl.
