    Hi Victoria, I love trying out dishes with various flavours especially those that are easy, simple to prepare and cook, yet must be tasty. I find it worthy to try and it's very economical too.

    Hi Phong Hong, yes if you deep fried the chicken. To save oil, I usually pan fry it and the chicken edges aren't as crispy but it is alright. After all it is home-cooking. The sauce is appetising, no doubt.

    Hi Karen, this dish is good as a One Dish Meal as it is appetising enough for a simple meal with some fresh salad. Fuss free and quick to cook especially with the use of a non-stick pan.

    Hi Kimmy,

    If you give me a bowl of steamed rice, I can finish all of this dish all by myself with the bowl of steamed rice... LOL!

    Very delicious!
