Combine eggs, flour and salt. Dip chicken pieces in egg

browns, transfer to shallow baking pan. To skillet, add
chicken broth, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, syrup drained from

Here is another method;

To make chicken balls;

(-Have a pot of boiling water ready,
-Also have your fav. sweet and sour sauce warm. Beside the boiling water.)

chicken meat - minced (no bone no skin)
sherry- to taste
egg
ginger - minced
green onions - minced
sugar - very little
oyster sauce
cornstarch - to assist in binding
Salt / white pepper

1. Combine all ing. in a bowl and mix thoroughly.
2. Grab a hand full of the mix and squeeze (make a fist) till there is a small ball (about the size of a walnut) by the top of your fist by the thumb.
3. Using a spoon, scoop the ball and drop into the boiling water. Repeat this process till you have enough for the day or enough for a dish. Cook until the ball starts to float. Aprox 10- 15 mins.
3. Take out and place into your sweet and sour sauce.


Note. step 3 . you can also deep fry if you prefer a darker colour.
