3. Blend Chicken and Eggs: In a blender, process the chicken meat along with the eggs until you achieve a smooth consistency.

4. Combine Ingredients: Add the blended chicken mixture to the bowl of vegetables. Mix well, and adjust the seasoning with sugar, salt, and any preferred flavor enhancers to taste.

5. Incorporate Flour: Add 2 tablespoons of tapioca or sago flour to the mixture and stir until fully integrated.

6. Prepare the Mold: Grease a baking mold with butter to prevent sticking. Transfer the chicken mixture into the prepared mold, spreading it evenly.

7. Steam the Mixture: Preheat a steamer. Place the mold in the steamer and cook for approximately 30 minutes.

8. Cool and Slice: Once steamed, remove the mold and allow it to cool. Once cooled, cut the chicken mixture into nugget-sized pieces.

9. Coat the Nuggets: Dip each nugget piece into the flour and water mixture, then roll them in breadcrumbs until well coated.

10. Fry the Nuggets: Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the coated nuggets until they are golden brown and crispy.

11. Store and Serve: For convenience, store the uncooked nuggets in an airtight container in the freezer. When ready to enjoy, simply fry the frozen nuggets until heated through.

These homemade chicken nuggets are a delightful treat for any meal. Perfectly seasoned and coated with a crispy breadcrumb layer, they offer a deliciously satisfying bite every time. Enjoy them as a snack or serve them as a main dish with your favorite dipping sauce.
