1

Heat 4-5 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pot.

2

Add 1/2 cup of chicken and cook briefly without overcooking to avoid dryness.

3

Add 1 tablespoon of ginger garlic paste and stir.

4

Add chopped carrots and bell peppers to the pot and cook until slightly crunchy.

5

Add 1-1.5 teaspoons of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and optional cumin powder.

6

Mix in 1-1.5 tablespoons of chili sauce, 1-1.5 tablespoons of soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of vinegar.

7

Add 1 tablespoon of dark soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce to enhance flavor.

8

Stir everything well and cook without burning the sauces.

9

Add a sufficient amount of water and let it cook on low to medium flame for 15-20 minutes.

Prepare a cornstarch slurry with 2-3 tablespoons of cornstarch mixed with water and add it to the soup to thicken.

Cook the soup until it thickens, being careful not to add too much cornstarch at once.

12

Add an egg to the soup and ensure it is cooked through to avoid a raw egg smell.
