Chicken Balls

Chicken Balls:

2 cups cubed chicken(about 2 chicken breasts)

Oil for deep frying

Batter:

1 cup flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup water

For batter: Mix together dry ingredients and whisk in eggs and water. Add chicken. Stir to coat evenly. Use teaspoon to drop chicken pieces in hot oil. Fry until nicely browned,about 3-4 minutes, stirring to brown evenly. Remove from oil with a metal slotted spoon or tongs and place into a dish lined with paper towel.to absorb some of the grease. Serve immediately with your favourite sweet and sour sauce or use my recipe below.

Sweet & Sour Sauce:

3 tbsp soya sauce
3 tbsp water
1/2 cup vinegar
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
3-4 tbsp cornstarch
1/2 cup water

Mix together the first five ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Dissolve cornstarch in second amount of water and add to boiling mixture. Cook until thickened. If your sauce does not want to get thick you may have to add a second amount of cornstarch mixed in 2-3 tbsp of water. Sauce is good on the chicken balls as well as the rice.
