Instructions: Cut the chicken meat into small cubes, each about the size of a sugar lump.

Mix together the chicken, salt, egg white and cornflour paste in a bowl.

Cut the green pepper into cubes about the same size as the chicken.

Heat oil in a preheated wok. Stir fry the chicken cubes for about 1 minute, or until the color changes. Remove from the wok with a slotted spoon and keep warm. Add the green pepper, chillies, spring onion and ginger and stir fry for about 1 minute. Then add the chicken, sweet bean paste or hoi-sin sauce, chili bean paste and sherry. Blend well and cook for 1 minute more. Finally add the cashew nuts and sesame oil. Serve hot.
