Heat 2 tbsp of oil in wok. Fry shallots and dried chillies until fragrant. Remove and put into a food processor.

Add the spice ingredients (A) and process until mixture turns fine. Use 2 tbsp of this mixture to marinate the chicken, for 30-40 minutes.

Put coconut milk, remaining ground ingredients and ingredients (B) in a deep saucepot. Add the marinated chicken and bring to a low simmer.

Cook for 30-35 minutes or until gravy is semi-dry. Stir in kerisik and add seasoning. Continue to cook for 6-7 minutes or until chicken is tender.

Chefs note: This is typical Kelantanese rendang.
