Method
Add water to a pan, add the soya chaap sticks to it and let it boil for 5-7 minutes on high flame.
Once out of the water, pat dry with a paper towel and remove the ice cream sticks from each stick. Cut it into diagonal shapes. Place the cut pieces on a plate.
In a kadhai/wok, heat oil over medium flame. Fry the soya chaap until it turns crispy and golden brown. Remove and place it on a tissue-lined plate.
In the same kadai, add chopped garlic, ginger, green chilies, and spring onions. Sauté over a high flame for a minute. Add in the green capsicum, red bell pepper, and yellow bell pepper. Sauté well.
Season with salt, soya sauce, green chili sauce, tomato ketchup, black pepper powder, red chili powder.
Add in the Cornflour slurry, and let the sauce thicken. Continue to toss and cook for another 1-2 minutes on medium to high flame. Make sure to keep mixing it so it doesn’t burn.
Add in the Chaap sticks and toss it till the chaap is covered with the sauce.
