Peel onion and thinly slice. Slice the lemongrass finely, starting at the

thinner end, stopping towards the base when it gets tough.

Heat the oil in a wok or large saucepan for a couple of minutes. Add

the onion. Fry for 3-5 minutes, until soft and translucent. Stir in the

curry paste and cook for 1 min, continuously.

Add Daybreak chicken pieces and stir until they are coated. Add the

lemongrass, fish sauce, sugar, lime leaves and coconut milk. Bring

slowly to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 15

minutes until the chicken is cooked. Stir the curry a few times while

it cooks, to stop it sticking and to keep the chicken submerged.

While the chicken is cooking, strip the leaves from the coriander

and chop roughly. Taste the curry and season according to your taste

preference. Stir half the coriander into the curry and sprinkle the

rest over the top. Serve with Thai jasmine or basmati rice.
