Step 3
Stir in the chicken and curry powder. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until the chicken is browned.
Step 4
Stir in chicken stock and fish sauce and bring to a moderate boil. Reduce heat and stir in the lentils. Stirring occasionally, cook on a gentle simmer for 20 minutes, or until lentils are soft.
