Method

1. Peel the tough outer coating from the lemon grass stalk. Finely chop the white, bulbous part of each stalk, discarding the rest. In a casserole dish fry the green curry paste in vegetable oil over a high heat for 3 minutes. Add garlic, lemon grass, lime leaves and half the coconut milk and cook, stirring often, until the sauce starts to split, about 5 minutes.

2. Add in fresh coriander, chicken and chilli and simmer for 15 minutes. Add remaining coconut milk and cook for a further 3 minutes. Add prawns and pea aubergines and cook for further 2 minutes or until the prawns have turned a pink colour.

3. Just before serving fold in the basil leaves, fish sauce and lime juice. Garnish with coriander sprigs and serve with rice.
