Instructions

Instructions and steps: 

Step 1 Cook chicken mince in a non-stick pan in a spray of oil. Break up with a spoon and stir until well cooked. Remove from heat and set aside to coooill.

Step 2 To make the dressing, combine fish sauce, sugar and lime juice. Taste and adjust to your liking; everyone is different and it's fine to play around with this to get the sweet/salty balance you like. You can also add a little dried chilli to this dressing if you want more kick.

Step 3 Add coleslaw, kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass, mint, shallot and chilli (if using) to cooled chicken mince and mix well. Add dressing and stir to combine. Serve with steamed jasmine rice.
