Method

Whizz the coriander, lemongrass, ginger, chilli or chillies, garlic and spring onions to a paste in a food processor.
Heat the oil in a wok over a medium-high heat, add the chicken and fry, stirring, for a couple of minutes until browned all over.
Add the coriander paste and fry for a minute more. Pour over the coconut milk, then add the remaining ingredients.
