Instructions
- Remove rooted part of the lemongrass. Crush the white part with the back of a knife then fold and bundle the leaves around the stalks. Set aside.
- In a pot over medium-low heat, saute ginger, onion, and garlic in oil until limp and aromatic.
- Add in the chicken pieces and stir to coat with oil. Then add the fish sauce. Cover and let simmer for 5 minutes. Juices and some fat will usually come out from the chicken.
- Add water and lemongrass. Bring to a boil. Skim off the scum from the broth using a spoon or skimmer.
- Add coconut water and bring again to a boil. Once it boils, lower heat and cover the pot. Let it simmer for 25-30 minutes.
- Add the chayote or green papaya, green chilis, and coconut meat and season with ground pepper and more fish sauce or salt if needed. Let it cook for 5 minutes
- Lastly, mix in the chili leaves and simmer for another minute. Turn off heat and serve.
