I've eaten a Thai dish very similar to this back in Malaysia but the originally dish uses the whole fish. Since I don't have fish I just used chicken breast for this. The key to this dish is the mango salad. The mango should firm and not overly ripe. This dish tasted really good as the crunchiness of the chicken compliments really well with the sweet and sour mango salad.Ingredietns :
2 chicken breast - cut to bite size pieces
1 tbsp of soy sauce
1/4 tsp of garlic powder
1 egg white
3 tbsp of cornflour
salt and pepper to taste
Mango Salad
1 firm mango - cut into strip
1 carrot - cut into thin strip
1 red chili
1 kafir lime leaf (finely chopped)
2 tbsp of sugar
1/4 cup of vinegar
2 sprigs cilantro - roughly chopped
some toasted sesame seeds (for garnish)
1) Marinate chicken with soy sauce, garlic powder, salt, pepper and set it aside to marinate for an hour.2) Mix all the salad ingredients together except for sesame seeds and let in pickle in the refrigerator.
2) Heat up some oil for frying. Mix in egg white to the chicken and then stir in cornflour. Mix well and deep fry until golden brown. Drain the oil on paper towel.
3) Serve chicken and top it with mango salad. Garnish wth some sesame seeds.
