- Heat the oil in the wok on a high heat.
- Dip the chicken pieces in the egg then dredge in the cornflour.
- Fry the battered chicken pieces for 4-5 minutes or until crisp and light brown. Remove the meat from the wok and drain. You might need to do this in batches.
- Heat 30ml (2 tbsp) vegetable oil in a clean wok, then fry the pineapple, onion and peppers for 3 minutes.
- Add the chicken and sauce, stir and let the mixture bubble until it’s thickened.
- Serve immediately with steamed rice.
