GARNISH:

Coriander leaves Here's another simple recipe. Straw mushrooms are available canned in the Oriental section of many supermarkets or fresh in Asian groceries. Enoki mushrooms would probably be a good substitute, although I haven't tried that... Heat the oil in a saucepan or wok and fry the garlic until soft but not brown. Add the chicken and stir-fry for 5 minutes. cool a little. Add the water and mushrooms. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Add the lemon juice. Cover, and cook gently for a further 10 minutes. Add the chilies, spring onions and ginger. Remove from the heat. Sprinkle with coriander leaves before serving.
