Marinate the chicken in some paste for 30 minutes, and add a little oil and the chicken pieces to a hot casserole-type pan or wok. 2 Fry for four minutes, add the rest of the marinade - it will sizzle and spit. Stir in the coconut milk, bring to the boil and simmer gently for eight minutes until the chicken is cooked. 3 Season to taste. The flavour should have a kick but be reasonably mellow ~ very fresh and fragrant. 4 Sprinkle with the pistachios and some coriander leaves and serve with steamed rice or noodles and a chunky coconut, tomato, cucumber and lime relish.
