Ingredients:

BATTER

4 tbsp cornstarch
1/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup water
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg
1 egg white
2 tbsp salt
1 1/2 lb boneless chicken breasts cut in th, in strips
2 cup peanut oil, for deep-frying

SAUCE

1 1/2 tbsp peanut oil
2 tsp chopped ginger
3 tbsp finely sliced garlic
1 tsp salt
3 tbsp sugar
1 tsp white rice vinegar
1/2 cup water
1 tsp cornstarch, mixed with
1 tsp water

Instructions:

MIX THE BATTER INGREDIENTS together in a medium-sized bowl; it should
be thick and smooth. Allow the batter to sit, covered for at least 30
minutes. Combine the chicken with the batter. Heat a wok or large
deep skillet until it is hot and add the oil for frying. When the oil
is barely smoking, deep-fry the chicken for 2 minutes or until the
batter is just firm. You should do this in several batches. Remove
the chicken with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

TO MAKE SAUCE: Heat a small saucepan; when it is hot, add the oil,
ginger and garlic, and stir for 30 seconds. Then add the rest of the
sauce ingredients and simmer for 2 minutes. Keep warm. Reheat the oil
in the wok until it is very hot, but not smoking. Deep-fry the
chicken again until it is golden and crisp, about 1 minute. Remove
and drain, place on a warm platter, drizzle with the sauce and serve
immediately.
