Prepare the Aromatics
In a pan over medium heat, add a splash of oil. Sauté the minced garlic, shallots, ginger, candlenuts, and turmeric along with the turmeric leaves until fragrant. This process will release the essential oils and create a flavorful base for the dish. -

Cook the Chicken
Once the aromatics are sizzling and aromatic, add the pieces of chicken to the pan. Stir well to combine and cook until the chicken is no longer pink and is fully cooked through. This step is crucial for ensuring the chicken is tender and infused with the flavors of the spices. -
Add Tofu and Long Beans
After the chicken is cooked, gently fold in the sliced long beans and the triangular pieces of tofu. Stir-fry everything together, allowing the tofu to absorb the flavors while the long beans retain their crispness. -
