R.A.G.E. Food Fight : Sweet & Sour Chicken
That’s the Sweet & Sour Chicken I cooked! Don’t you think it makes you feel hungry when you see it?? Well, I’m inspired to create this because this is the very first dish I learnt to make when I first started cooking. At least I thought that it has the biggest memory and impact to my cooking life! 😉 I’m not gonna go any further into the ingredients I need for this dish as most of it are uploaded in a video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZN1foy1Icg&feature=youtu.be
I’ve decided somehow to show you some cutting skills which I might have skipped due to lack of time. I hope from here, you’ll gain more than just a recipe. 🙂
I will try to make it short and precise although it’s clearly seen in the photos for which steps are taken first.
