Lemongrass provides a zesty lemon flavour and aroma to many Southern-Asian dishes. It really gives this curry its authentic Vietnamese flavour.

Ingredients

Skinless chicken breast

405 g, (buy 450g) fat trimmed, cut into 3cm pieces

Fresh lemongrass

2 tbs, chopped, pale section only

Curry powder

2 tbs

Light canned coconut milk

270 ml

Fish sauce

1 tbs

Choy sum

1 bunch(es), coarsely chopped

Canola oil

2 tsp

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, turning, in 2 batches, for 3–5 minutes or until browned. Transfer to a plate.
  2. Add lemongrass to pan and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until softened. Add curry powder and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until fragrant. Add milk, fish sauce and ½ cup (125ml) water and bring to the boil. Return chicken to pan.
