Cooking Steps
- Prepare the stock.
- Wash or peel the potatoes and cut them into wedges, then rinse under cold water.
- Chop the shallot and slice the carrot into thin crescents.
- Cut the chicken breast into strips.
Did you know... potatoes are a great source of vitamins, such as vitamin B6 and vitamin B11 which keep you energised. Potatoes also provide vitamin C for a strong immune system.
- Heat the sunflower oil in a soup pot or large pan over medium-high heat and fry the shallot for 1 minute.
- Add the chicken, yellow curry spices, potato wedges and carrot and fry for 3 minutes, then pour in the coconut milk and the stock.
- Bruise the lemongrass and add it to the soup (see Tip).
- Lower the heat, cover with the lid and allow to simmer gently for 9 - 12 minutes.
Tip: the lemongrass will provide more flavour if you bruise it several times.
- Remove and discard the base of the pak choi and finely chop both the stem and the leaves.
- Add the pak choi to the soup and cook gently for 3 minutes, then stir in the fish sauce* and the Vietnamese-style sauce (see Tip).
- Check if the potatoes and the carrot are done, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Add another splash of fish sauce as preferred.
*Take care, this ingredient is salty! Use as preferred.
- Take the lemongrass out of the soup and then serve in bowls or deep plates.
