Chicken Manchurian (made with Ching’s Secret Sauces)

Chicken Manchurian is one of my family’s favourite side dishes for Fried Rice. Since I make it pretty often, I tend to switch it up now and then.  This version, gives you a fantastic restaurant-style taste, one which is achieved by using  Indo-Chinese Soy, green Chilli, and red chilli sauces. Although you may use various brands, I found that the Indo-Chinese brands, have the right ratio of spice to sweetness, whereas some other sauces may be too sweet, and you don’t get the same taste as Indo-Chinese restaurants, and will more likely get a more American Chinese touch to it.

Although there are several Indian brands, one of the easiest to come by, globally would be Ching’s Secret sauces. This is not a sponsored post, but I do recommend the green chilli, red chilli, and dark soy sauces, for several recipes.
