Place a wide-based pan (ideally non-stick and with a matching lid) over a medium-high heat with 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) vegetable oil
When hot, add the chicken and colour on each side for 3 min or until golden
Season each side generously with salt
Once golden, add a splash of water (approx. 2-3 tbsp) and cover immediately with a lid (stand back as it will spit!)
Tip: The trapped water creates steam for even cooking
Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for a further 7-10 min or until the chicken is cooked through, lowering the heat if necessary
Meanwhile, boil a kettle for step 5
Peel and cut the carrots into bite-size pieces, discarding the root ends
Trim the green beans and cut them in half widthways
Soak the coconut cream sachet(s) in a bowl of very hot water (this softens it)
Once the chicken is cooked, transfer it to a clean chopping board and allow to rest for 5 min
Add the carrot to the same pan with a large pinch of salt
Cook over a medium-high heat for 3 min or until coloured and caramelised
Meanwhile, add the noodles to a pot of salted boiling water (enough to cover them) on a high heat
Boil for 5-7 min or until cooked through but with a slight bite
Once cooked, drain and briefly rinse them under cold, running water until cooled slightly, then return them to the pot off the heat
Meanwhile, add the green beans to the caramelised carrots and cover again with a lid
Cook for 5 min over a medium-low heat or until both vegetables are tender
Meanwhile, peel and chop (or grate) the garlic finely
Combine the tamarind paste, coconut cream, honey, soy sauce and garlic with 50ml (100ml) boiled water
Mix well - this is your tamarind sauce
Shred the chicken with two forks, 'pulling' at the chicken to tear it
Chop the spring onions finely, discarding the root ends
Add the noodles and shredded chicken to the pan of vegetables and dress with the tamarind sauce
Mix well and serve garnished with chopped spring onion
Enjoy!
