Steg för steg

  1. 1

    Add the sugar and cook, stirring constantly, until it melts and turns into a light amber caramel.

    Cirka 2 min

    Kockens tips: This step provides color and a subtle sweetness to the sauce.

  4. 4

    Add the blanched chicken pieces to the pot and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until lightly browned.

    Cirka 5 min

    Kockens tips: Browning the chicken adds depth of flavor.

    Cirka 1 min

  6. 6

    Sauté the aromatics for about 1 minute until fragrant.

    Cirka 1 min

    Kockens tips: Be careful not to burn the spices.

  7. 7
