• In a pestle and mortar, pound coriander, long chilli (if using) and remaining garlic until it resembles a fine paste. Transfer paste to a bowl. • To bowl, add fish sauce & rice vinegar mix, the white sugar, hot water and a generous squeeze of lemon juice. Stir until well combined. Set aside.

TIP: Some like it hot, but if you don't, just hold back on the chilli. TIP: If you don't have a pestle and mortar, you can combine ingredients in a food processor.

Season with salt. ~~~~~~~~~~ MODULAR STEP ~~~~~~~~~~ • Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. • To a medium bowl, add cornflour, satay seasoning, the cold water, egg and a pinch of salt and pepper.
