1. Get two bowl. Crack 3 eggs in to one, and whisk them up. Add cornflour to the other. Dip you chicken in the flour, then the eggs, then the flour. Make sure the chicken is properly coated.
1. Do this with all the chicken. Heat some vegetable oil in a pan or wok. Once hot, add your chicken. Fry until golden (do this in batches if you have to). Set chicken aside, and then wipe out the pan.
1. Roughly chop up an onion and your peppers. Add to the pan with a splash of vegetable oil. Fry until beginning to soften (5-6 minutes) and then add your pineapple. Mix it in. Fry for another 2 minutes.

1. Sauce time. In to the pan or wok, add 4 tablespoons of ketchup, 4 tablespoons of rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons of sweet chilli sauce and a tablespoon and a half of sugar. Stir everything together.
