Instructions
- Marinate the chicken with salt and lime juice, leave for 1 hour.
- Saute ground spices together with lemongrass, lime leaves and bay leaves. Cook until the spices are cooked and fragrant.
- Add the chicken, stir until the spices are even. Then add coconut water, sugar and salt. Cook until the sauce reduces.
- After the sauce has reduced, add the ambu-ambu.
- Then cook, turning occasionally, until the spices are evenly distributed and the sauce is more spicy. Correct the taste.
- I steal the lime and stir again just before turning off the stove. Ready to be served warm.
- If you use instant ambu-ambu, you can add coriander to the spices. However, if ambu-ambu is made from grated coconut and coriander which is roasted and then ground, the addition of coriander is no longer necessary in the ingredients.
