How to make it
- Remember that I have posted this as a rough estimate of the original recipe, which I made up as I went along; so use your discretion when adding flavor or amounts of ingredients...
- Start by making sure you have a side pot of broth boiling on the stove, in another larger pot place chicken, onion salt, oil, start to cook
- Add prawns (if vegetarian recipe, start tofu but do not add lentils)
- Add garlic, ginger, jalapeño, Thai paste, cooking the chicken (or tofu), adding broth to prevent the use of to much oil but keeping the chicken from burning don’t add to much though just enough to cover the bottom of the pot and keep things moist
- Once chicken is fairly ok (out of danger zone for food poisoning, but not yet edible) add mushrooms, (remember this whole time to keep things moist)
- Add other ingredients for flavor, (also add lentils at this point if using), stir thoroughly, add vegetables, and some of the coconut milk about haft the can
- Cook for about 8min on med heat (at your discretion)
- Add remainder of chicken broth and coconut milk, reduce heat to a vary low setting, place lid on pot let simmer for about 30min stirring frequently and sampling for taste add more flavor at your discretion!
- And that's it!
