02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Step 1

First, let’s make the white sauce for the chicken sticks. Heat some oil in a pan, add chopped garlic, and cook it for about a minute until fragrant. Then stir in the all-purpose flour and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Slowly add the milk while stirring, and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until it thickens. Season with salt, pepper, and chili flakes, give it a good mix, and set it aside.

Step 2

In another pan, heat some oil and add ginger garlic paste. Cook it for a minute, then add the chicken pieces. Cook for 3-4 minutes, then season with salt, chili powder, cumin seeds, and chili flakes. Add a little water, cover the pan, and let it cook for another 3-4 minutes until the chicken is done. Once cooked, shred the chicken and set it aside.
