Basil Chilli Chicken

I got this recipe from a forum I frequent.

500gm of chicken breast, thinly sliced
1 tspn of chopped coriander root
1 tspn of finely chopped chilli
1 finely chopped onion
1 cup shredded basil leaves
1 or 2 tblspn of fish sauce
1.5 tspn sugar
1 cup coconut milk

Put 1 tblspn of oil in wok and fry onion and chilli together for a minute or so until onion starts to be come transparent. Throw in the chicken and cook.

Throw in the coriander root, sugar, fish sauce and basil leaves and stir for 1 minute.

Add the coconut milk and turn down the heat to simmer.I usually chop up some extra coriander leaves and add them right at the endof the cooking process to liven it up a bit. If the mix tastes a bit bland you might want to add the coriander leaves a little sooner.

Serve with jasmine rice in a bowl with some lavash bread.
