    a pan of salted boiling water for 2 minutes. cool in cold water, drain
    and put to one side
    In food processor, whizz garlic, ginger, onions, coriander, chillies and
    fish sauce with a pinch of salt. Add water chestnuts, chicken, lime zest
    and juice and sesame oil and pulse until you have a minced meat texture.

    leaf, fold it up and tuck in the sides then roll up. Rub a colander,
    bamboo steamer or normal steamer with a little olive oil and put parcels
