Fry chicken
- In a blender, add shallots, garlic, candlenut, coriander, turmeric, ginger and blend well.
- With some oil, sauté the blended spices till fragrant. The color of the spices will lighten and the oil separates.

- Add in water and coconut milk. Stir well.
- Add in sugar, salt, chicken powder, white pepper, MSG and chicken.
- Over medium heat, cook the chicken until the sauce reduces. This will take about 20 – 30 minutes. Flip the chicken occasionally so that it doesn’t burn.
- Remove and set aside to cool to room temperature.
- In a frying pan with heated oil, fry the chicken until golden brown.
- Lift and set aside.

Grind spices
- In a mortar and pestle, coarsely grind the green peppers, 20 g shallots, salt, sugar and MSG.
- Once the chilies have been crushed, add in the red tomatoes and grind coarsely until blended.
- In a sauce pan with some oil, fry the remaining shallots until lightly brown.
- Pour the oil with the shallots into the chili and tomato paste. Stir well.
- Add in the basil leaves and mix well
