Fried chicken: stirfried with garlic, ginger, onion, tomato, peppers, few spices, and coated with ketchup is a flavourful dish that you can’t say no to. It doesn’t stop there: we have devilled prawns, fish, and squid too. I was delighted to see one of my favorite bakeries back home started selling these delicious devilled chicken in a bun. It’s a long bun( about 8 inches) with devilled chicken filling, and my dad used to buy it for me every time he visits the bakery. It brings back lovely memories.

The shaping method in the recipe is for a regular oval shape. However, you can make round ones too.
