Critical Success Points

  • Shaping the protein balls so they hold together
  • Ensuring the sauce reaches a thick but pourable consistency
  • Cooking the vegetables just until crisp‑tender to avoid sogginess

Safety Warnings

  • Use caution when handling hot oil – keep a lid nearby in case of splatter
  • Sharp knives and chopper blades can cause cuts – keep fingers curled
  • Do not over‑heat the pan to avoid burning the spices
