Instructions

1 Prep chicken

Chop the chicken breasts to cubes. Peel and crush the garlic. Peel and grate the ginger. Finely chop the green chilli (remove the seeds and the white pith if you prefer it milder).

2 Fry and season

Heat a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of vegetable oil. Once hot, add the chicken and fry for 2 min. Add the garlic, ginger, chilli and a pinch of salt. Fry for 1 min further. Add the sambal oelek, tomato paste, soy sauce, turmeric powder and black pepper. Stir-fry for a final 2 min. Transfer everything to a bowl and set aside.

3 Prep stir fry

Slice the tortilla wraps into thin strips (see pro tip). Peel the carrot and cut it into thin sticks. Peel and finely slice the onion. Halve the leeks and rinse in between the layers, then slice into thin sticks. Finely slice the red chilli. Chop the fresh coriander.

4 Fry tortilla strips

Return the pan to a high heat with a drizzle of vegetable oil. Once hot, add the tortilla strips and stir-fry for 3-4 min until golden and crispy (see pro tip). Transfer them to a plate and set aside. If you're cooking for 3 or 4, use two pans.

5 Stir-fry

Return the pan to the heat with a generous drizzle of oil. Add the curry leaves and stir-for 1 min. Add the carrots, red onion and leeks and fry for 2 min. Crack the eggs into the pan and stir-fry until scrambled. Add the chicken and its marinade and stir-fry for a final 1-2 min.

6 Add and serve

Add the fried tortilla strips to the pan and give everything a good toss. Divide the Kottu Roti among plates and garnish with the red chilli slices and the fresh coriander.
