Wash hands thoroughly after handling raw chicken to avoid cross-contamination.
In a bowl, combine 2 tsp soy sauce, 1 tsp potato starch, 1 tsp rice wine, 1 tbsp egg white, and 1 tsp water to make the marinade. Add chicken cubes and massage by hand until liquid is absorbed and chicken turns silky.
Watch out
Do not add too much starch, otherwise a thick layer of paste will form around the chicken, ruining its tender texture.
In another empty bowl, combine 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice wine, 1 tsp white vinegar, 1 tsp sugar, and 1 tsp potato starch. Stir well to form the stir-fry sauce.
Watch out
Potato starch settles quickly
re-stir sauce thoroughly before pouring into the wok, otherwise the sauce will clump unevenly
