2.   In a bowl pan, heat 1 tbsp of cooking oil.  Add garlic and star anise.  Stir fry till fragrant.
3.   Add the bowl of soya sauce and water and let it simmer in low fire for 20 minutes.
4.   Add the marinated chicken and let it simmer for another 20-30 minutes.  The chicken should be well covered in the soya sauce and water.  
5.  Add sugar to taste.
6.  After 30 minutes, use a chopstick to poke the chicken to see if it's cook.
7.  Let the chicken cool before cutting into bite sizes.  Serve with pounded chili sauce.
