2. Heat the pan and put olive oil. Wait until the pan is hot then put the paste that we made from step 1.
3. Fry the paste until it smells nice. Now, add chicken, fish sauce, sugar and half of coconut milk. Then mix well.
4. Cook for 10 minutes. Keep adding coconut milk or water when the pan is getting too dry.
5. After that, add sato and bamboo. Pour the rest of coconut milk. Cook for about 2 minutes.
6. Turn off the fire. Dress the curry with kaffir lime leaves.
You should crack the bean open to check inside if there is any warm in it. Even though I picked the most expensive one, which is usually fresh, I still found 5 warms. Be careful naka!
