It’s a lot to say I know, but honestly, I couldn’t leave one of these words out.

Ingredients

• 4 small chicken breasts
• 4 spring onions, roughly chopped
• 1 stalk of lemongrass, smashed
• 1 piece of ginger, roughly chopped
• 3 kaffir lime leaves, torn
• 1 teaspoon of curry powder
• 1ltr of vegetable or chicken stock
• 270 ml of coconut cream
• 2 ts fish sauce
• 1 tbs brown Sugar
• Juice from 2 limes
• 1 packet of rice noodles
• 500 g of mixed greens (e.g., snow peas, beans, carrots, zucchini)

Optional

• Fresh coriander, basil and chilli crisp and fresh lime.

Instructions

1. In a large, deep frypan, dry fry the spring onions, smashed lemongrass, ginger, torn kaffir lime leaves, and curry powder for about a minute until aromatic.
2. Add 700 ml of your favorite stock and allow it to simmer for approximately 10 minutes until fragrant.
3. Stir in 270 ml of coconut cream and mix well.
4. Gently place the small chicken breasts into the poaching liquid, reduce the heat, cover, and let them simmer for approximately 12 minutes.
5. Remove the chicken from the poaching liquid and set it aside to rest before slicing into 1 cm pieces.
6. Remove as many aromatics from the liquid as you can, then season with the fish sauce, lime and sugar.
7. Meanwhile, soften the rice noodles with boiling water until tender.
8. Right before serving, add 500 g of greens (e.g., snow peas, beans, carrots, zucchini) to the coconut sauce mixture to briefly poach.
9. Divide the noodles among bowls, add the sliced chicken and the poached vegetables and a ladle of sauce.
10. Top with fresh coriander, basil and chilli crisp and fresh lime.
