Then add Chili flakes, Soy sauce, oyster sauce, and tomato sauce. and stir.
08) Then add the chicken broth, sugar, half of the remaining onion rings, and all other remaining ingredients excluding tomato.
09) Cook this under low flame and let it simmer. Cook it until all the water evaporates and it turns to a thick gravy. 10) Finally, add the remaining onion rings and tomatoes. Then give it a good stir.

Note

boil the chicken under low flame hence we have to wait until the meat releases its oil and juices. You can skip this step and instead of that deep fry the meat. Watch out for the salt because sauces contain salt too. Make certain to use good quality sauces.
