Step 1
Soak the chicken in a pot with 1 lt water, salt and lime juice for 15 minutes. Set aside.
Step 2
Dilute the coconut cream in 500ml water.
Step 3
Blend into a fine paste: chillies, galangal, ginger, garlic, and red onion.
Step 4
In a wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the blended paste and sauté until it thickens and starts to become dry.
Step 5
Add the lemongrass, lime leaves, coriander powder and turmeric powder. Mix well.
Step 6
Add the diluted coconut cream. Bring to a boil.
Step 7
Add the chicken. Reduce to a medium low flame. Cook until the chicken is done, and until the liquid has evaporated into a thick paste. This should take about 45 minutes to an hour. Stir occasionally to prevent the coconut from breaking.
Step 8
Turn off the heat and serve.
