    Instructions

    1 Turn slow cooker on to low. Heat a non-stick pan with oil spray and cook onion until softened. Add chicken with a little extra oil spray and cook until evenly browned. Add lemongrass paste to pan and toss to coat chicken.

    2 Add chicken to slow cooker with all the remaining ingredients except cornflour and noodles. Add 1 1/2 cups water. Cook on low for 6 hours.

    3 Mix a little of the liquid with cornflour to form a paste then stir paste into slow cooker mixture. Stir until sauce thickens slightly. Season to taste.

    4 Cook noodles in boiling water then serve with chicken on top. Garnish with fresh coriander if preferred.

    Variations

    Make it gluten free: Check lemongrass paste, stock and cornflour are gluten free.

    HFG tip

    Kaffir lime leaves (sold in the fresh herb aisle) give this dish a real Thai zing.
