Take ½ kg chicken mince in a bowl. To it add 1 lemon grass finely chopped with outer layer removed, 2 tbsp finely chopped spring onions, 1 egg (whisked well), some finely chopped green chillies, 2 tbsp finely chopped root ginger, 2 tbsp finely chopped coriander leaves, salt to taste and 2 tbsp oil . Knead well with your fingers and add 2 tbsp fish sauce. Add about ½ cup bread crumbs and knead well.
Now take a greased baking tray. Wet your hands with water, take some mince mix, make small balls and arrange them on the greased baking tray. Flatten the balls a bit and put the tray in preheated oven for 10-12 min or until the cakes are lightly browned and cooked through.
Serve hot as a snack with sweet chilli sauce, lime wedges, shredded spring onions and red chillies. It also makes light and healthy supper when served with green salad. You can also do them in small bite sized pieces. They are ideal on cocktail sticks served with sweet chilli sauce on the side.
