Sweet and Sour Chicken

Fried chicken pieces in a sweet and sour sauce, served with basmati rice and green peas, cooked with some pilau spices, and some sumac. Also some chopped onion and yellow pepper, added after the chicken was cooked..  I cheated with the sauce, since it was bought ready made from Aldi's. 

If you want to make your own sweet and sour sauce, it is essentially 1 part sugar, 1 part vinegar, and 3 parts tomato sauce or ketchup. Plus tinned pineapple chunks in juice, and sometimes spring onions.

So the ingredients might be something like below. 

2 oz/ 50g brown sugar
2 oz/ 50g malt vinegar
6 oz / 150g tomato sauce or passata
1 small tin of pineapple chunks in juice
1 tbsp light soy
