Chicken Manchurian- A Famous Chinese Cuisine

Chicken Manchurian is a famous Chinese cuisine. It can be prepared in a
number of ways. It can be cooked either with beef or meat or chicken. The
most preferred chicken Manchurian is the one that is prepared with
pineapple. Pineapple is preferred because it makes the Manchurian much
more appealing and the taste of the Manchurian increases many fold. It
even acts as a sweetening agent thus making the Manchurian a little sweet
in taste. Vinegar is not preferred in this dish because it gives a very
sour taste but it can be added if one really likes sour dishes. This dish
does not take very long time to be cooked. It just takes around half an
hour to prepare this dish. It serves four people well.

How to cook chicken Manchurian

Firstly marinating of the chicken is important. Prepare the marinating
mixture. Mix all purpose flour, salt, corn flour and eggs in a mixing
bowl. If the batter appears a little thick then one may add a little cold
water to it. Cold water provides consistency to the batter and makes it
good enough for marinating. Coat all the pieces of chicken with the batter
and keep them for sometime.

Next step involves heating the oil in a deep sauce pan. After the oil is
properly heated put into it the pieces of marinated chicken slowly one by
one. The flame of the gas must be kept really slow so as to prevent the
pieces from roasting. A high flame may cook the marinated chicken only
from outside and the inner part may remain uncooked. Thus always keep the
flame slow. The chicken must be cooked till it turns light brown in color.
This is an indication that the chicken is properly cooked.

Now we will prepare sauce for the Manchurian. For preparing the sauce one
must heat a little oil in a deep sauce pan and then add garlic to it.
After adding garlic to the oil fry it for around a minute till the aroma
of garlic is felt all in the kitchen. Apart from providing taste it also
provides aroma thus making the dish really tempting.

Next step includes adding the pineapple pieces to the pan followed by the
chili garlic sauce, the tomato ketchup and the tomato paste. All should be
mixed properly in the pan to make it a homogeneous mixture. This should be
cooked properly on the medium flame for around two or three minutes. Thus
when one sees a little boil in the mixture then it is considered to be
cooked properly.

Next add the pieces of fried chicken to the mixture. After that add the
powdered red chili & the crushed chili. Then add salt according to taste
and water according to the requirement.

Next stir the mixture properly with light hands to make sure that
everything is properly cooked.

Add a little corn starch and cook the mixture for a few minutes.

Thus the chicken Manchurian is ready to be served.
