+Recipe: Vietnamese Lemongrass Chicken
+
+Adapted from Food & Wine Magazine, October 2007 “Simple, Tasty Vietnamese Cooking”
+Ingredients:
+
+2 tablespoons fish sauce
+3 garlic cloves, crushed
+1 tablespoon curry powder
+1/2 teaspoon salt
+2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
+1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast/thigh, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
+3 tablespoons water
+3 tablespoons cooking oil
+2 fresh lemongrass stalks, tender inner white bulbs only, minced
+1 large shallot, thinly sliced
+3 chilies, seeded and minced
+1 scallion for garnishing
+
+
+Method:
+
+In a bowl, combine the fish sauce, garlic, curry powder, salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the sugar. Add the chicken meat to coat.
+
+In a small skillet, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar with 1 tablespoon of the water and cook over high heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Cook without stirring until a deep amber caramel forms. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of water. Transfer to a bowl.
+Q¹Heat a wok over high heat. Add the oil and heat until shimmering. Add the lemongrass, shallot, and chilies and stir-fry until fragrant. Add the chicken and caramel and stir-fry until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is slightly thickened. Transfer to a bowl and top with the scallion. Serve with steamed white rice.
