Fried Chicken With Cashew Nuts image

Yes, another Chicken with Cashew dish - this one is a Thai style and there is quiet alot of liquid. Its a very tasty dish, its also quick & simple to make and great served with rice. I sometimes increase the chicken to about 500g and still leave all the other ingredients the same. You can also use less oil if you are using a non-stick pan
