Ingredients

Servings

For the paste

  • 1 lemongrass stalk white part only, finely sliced
  • 5 dried red chili
  • 1 tsp ginger minced or galangal
  • 1 kaffir lime leaf
  • 4 coriander stems washed and chopped; keep leaves for garnish
  • 3 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 2 shallot chopped
  • 1/2 tsp white pepper
  • 1 tsp shrimp paste
  • 1/2 tsp cumin ground
  • 1/2 tsp ground coriander
  • 2 tbsp paprika

For the curry

  • 1 chicken breast cooked, cut into small pieces
  • 3 tbsp peanut oil
  • 200g broccoli fresh mixed vegetables, etc
  • 200g carrot
  • 200g corn
  • 1 coconut milk 400g can
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1/2 tsp sugar

Instructions

To make the paste

  1. In a food processor, or using a pestle & mortar, blend the paste ingredients together to form a smooth paste. If you're using a pestle & mortar, add each fresh item separately in the order they're listed then stir in the powdered items. It's hard work, but no pain no gain etc.

To make the curry

  1. Heat the oil in a wok, and over a medium heat and when hot, add the curry paste. Sizzle for 30 seconds, stirring to avoid sticking before adding 1/2 the coconut milk.
  2. Let this bubble for 5 minuets to reduce, stirring regularly.
  3. Add the remaining coconut milk, salt, fish sauce and sugar and stir well.
  4. Tip in the vegetables and simmer for 2-3 minutes until just soft before adding the cooked chicken. Stir and remove from heat.
  5. Squeeze over lime juice and test for salt/fish sauce - adjust as you see fit! I always serve mine with plenty of jasmine rice.
