1. Halve and deseed two chillies. Roughly chop lemon grass. Peel and slice galangal, garlic and shallots. Roughly chop coriander and set aside. Peel and thinly slice the pineapple. Cut chicken into short strips.

2. Heat the oil in a deep wok or frying pan and stir-fry the chicken strips until just turning pale golden. Remove and set aside.

3. Add chillies, lemon grass, galangal, garlic and shallots to the wok and fry for 1-2min (see tip).
