Notes

The source lists corn flour as required but does not state when or how it is used. It also does not specify the amount of cooking oil, the amount of mixed bell peppers or green onion, or the covered cooking time and heat level. Use corn flour only if needed to thicken the gravy, but the source does not provide a thickening instruction.
