    Boil the pasta according to the package instructions - about 6-7 minutes, drain in a colander and cool under running water.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Orzo pasta: 500 g
  • 2

    Then take the carrot and onion, grate them on the finest grater, heat vegetable oil in a pan, fry the yellow curry paste and add the resulting vegetable mixture.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Carrot: 0.4 kg
    2. Onion: 0.4 kg
    3. Vegetable oil: 150 ml
    4. Yellow curry paste: 150 g

    Add kaffir lime leaves and a bruised lemongrass stalk. Simmer for 10 minutes on low heat, add cream and coconut milk, bring to a boil and return to low heat. Simmer for another 10 minutes. If the sauce is too thick, add a little water and bring it back to a boil.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Kaffir lime leaves: 2 g
    2. Lemongrass: 30 g
    3. Cream 23%: 300 ml
    4. Coconut milk: 300 ml

    While the sauce simmers, fry the randomly chopped chicken fillet with a pinch of salt in a second pan. Be careful not to overcook it - it's better if it remains slightly raw and finishes cooking in the sauce.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Chicken breast: 1 piece
    2. Cilantro: 20 g
    3. Butter: 20 g
