Salted Egg Cereal Chicken

ever since the youngest baby tried Cereal Prawns, he loved it for the crispy curry leaves and cereals and I decided to create the same dish but switch out the prawns with chicken.  And becos the auntie in me wanted to get the free Pyrex baking try ($15 worth of Knorrs products), I bought the Salted Egg powder.  Hence, for dinner, I decided to do up Salted Egg Cereal Chicken.

Ingredients:
- one pack of chicken fillet cut into 3cm cubes (but I would suggest chicken thigh meat will be nice!)
- 5 tablespoon Salted Egg Powder
- 5 tablespoon Cereal
- 1 to 2 chilli padi (chopped)
- 20 curry leaves
- pinch of salt & pepper
-1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 beaten egg
- 1 tablespoon corn flour (for extra cripsyness, add some sweet potato flour)
- 1 tablespoon of butter/margarine


Steps:

1. Marinate the chicken cubes with salt and pepper and corn flour.  Set aside to marinate for 25 mins.

2. Heat up pan with oil on medium fire to pan fry the chicken.  While oil is heating up, add in the beaten egg mixture to the chicken cubes and mix well.

3. Add in the chicken into the pan to fry till golden brown.  Dish up onto a kitchen towel to absorb the oil.

4. Leave a little oil + add in the butter on low fire, add in the salted egg powder and give a good stir.  When the mixture starts to bubble, add in the cereal, sugar, curry leaves and chilli and give a good stir to mix well.  Take care to loosen the clumps.

5. Add in the chicken cubes when the salted egg cereal mixture becomes aromatic.  Continue to stir fry.

6. Dish and plate.

Happy Eating!
