1. Heat cooking oil in a frying pan, then add cinnamon and curry leaves. Cook while stirring the wilted curry leaves, then add the ground spices and saute over low heat until the spices are cooked.
2. Increase the heat then add the chicken and lemongrass, cook while stirring until the spices are evenly distributed and the chicken is stiff, about 15 minutes. Add water, sugar and salt, then continue cooking until the chicken is completely cooked.
3. Add the coconut milk, long beans and tofu, cook over medium heat while continuing to stir so the coconut milk doesn’t break. Correct the taste with additional salt and seasoning just before turning off the heat.
