800g chicken breast, diced into large pieces

½cup picked coriander leaves ¼ cup fish sauce

1.To make the dipping sauce: Combine the vinegar, sugar and salt in a small saucepan. Cook, stirring over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Increase heat to high and cook for about 5 minutes or until the liquid has reduced and is syrupy. Remove from heat; stir in chillies and set aside until cool.

2.Place chillies, lemongrass, garlic and ginger into the small chopper bowl and process until finely chopped. Transfer to large processor bowl with the Quad blade inserted and add chicken, coriander, fish sauce and sesame oil. Process until meat is finely minced and paste is evenly distributed – about 5 seconds.

3.Wet hands with cold water and form chicken into small patties. Cook patties in vegetable oil over medium heat for 4-5 minutes or until golden on the outside and cooked through.
