2. Peel the carrots and potato and cut into ~2cm pieces
3. chop the onion and mince the garlic
4. Season the chicken with a pinch of salt
5. Shallow fry the veg in medium hot oil in a large pan - you wil need to do the potatoes and carrots separately

7. The carrots take about 4 mins and should look a bit blistered
8. The potatoes take 3-4 mins and should be light brown
9. Once done remove from the oil and put in a bowl lined with kitchen roll to soak up the oil
10. Fry the chicken for around 2-3 mins per side - it should brown on the outside but not cook through. when done transfer this to another bowl
11. Discard all but 4tbsp of oil and then sweat the onions for 3-4 mins, it should go translucent and soft
12. Add the garlic-ginger paste and stir well. cook for around 30 seconds to 1 دقيقة
13. Turn the heat down and push the contents to the sides. ther should be a little pool of oil in the centre of the pan
14. Add the spices to the oil and stir in well for around 90 seconds. Don't get the temperature too hot - you don't want to burn the spices

16. Stir in the lemon grass and bay leaves and then readd the veg and chicken from earlier
