Ingredients
  • 4 skinless Chicken thighs/4 halved breast, 3 Bay leaves
  • 1 lt Coconut water, 1 Lemongrass-bruised, 3 cm Cinnamon
  • 4 Kaffir lime leaves, frying Oil, 1 tbsp Butter, Salt
  • 2 tbsp Lime juice, 1 tsp ground Cardamom
Grind into a paste:
  • 3 Garlic cloves, 6 Shallots, 3 Candlenuts, ½ tsp Coriander
  • 1 tsp Pepper, 2 cm Ginger
Chili paste:
  • 2 Garlic cloves10 Red chilies, 3 Cayenne peppers
  • 1 Kaffir lime, 6 Stinky beans-sliced, ½ tsp Pepper
  • 5 tbsp of marinating mixture from the chicken
  • 5 Shallots, 2 Tomatoes, 1½ tsp Sugar, Salt

Directions
  • Pokes the chicken with a fork & then rub it with lime juice & some salt; let it rest for 20 minutes. Boil the coconut water with the spices paste & remaining spices. Bring it to a simmer until the flavor blended. Remove from the heat & let it cool down. Marinate the chicken in the mixture; covered & set it in the fridge for min 4 hours. Remove the chicken from the mixture. Save 5 tbsp of the marinating mixture for making the chili paste later on. Put the rest of the mixture into a steamer pot; add some more water; put the steamers lid on & then heat it. Steam the chicken until they are cooked. Remove from the heat & set aside.
  • Chili paste: Boil the chilies & tomatoes for a while; drain. Slice 1 of the tomato; set it aside. Grind all chilies, 1 whole boiled tomato, garlic & shallots. Sauté ground chilies with 3 tbsp oil until fragrant. Add in the stinky beans, 5 tbsp of the marinating mixture, sliced tomato, salt & sugar. Cook & keep on stirring it until the chili paste becomes greasy. Remove from the heat; mix in the kaffir lime juice.
  • In a wok, heat a lot of frying oil; add in the butter. Right before serving, fry the chicken just for a few second on both sides (like you just want to warm them up). Remove from the heat & serve the chicken with the chili paste, boiled cassava leaves and other raw vegetables.
  • * Discard the stinky beans from chili paste if u don’t want to eat them (I also don`t like to eat it). But it`s necessary to add the beans to the chili paste to get the flavor. Warning: Stinky beans contains certain Amino acids that give a strong smell to one`s urine up to 2 days after consumption (only when you eat the beans).
