Chicken Manchurian Noodles is an Indian-Chinese noodle dish that contains pieces of chicken, and stir-fried vegetables cooked in a spicy, sweet, and tangy sauce
In a large bowl, placed the chicken pieces along with the soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, egg, ginger garlic paste, salt, and black pepper. Mix to combine.
Dredge it with flour & cornstarch in preparation for frying the chicken
Heat the oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, fry the chicken in the oil until they are golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the oil and place them on a plate bowl. Set it aside.

Notes
If you don't have egg noodles, you can use udon noodle or rice noodle.
To make this recipe vegetarian, you can use paneer or tofu instead of chicken.
Once the noodle is cooked and soft, rinse it with cold water immediately to prevent from becoming sticky.
For stronger flavor of the chicken, marinate it for at least 30 minutes.
