TOASTED COCONUT
Place the coconut flakes in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
GOLDEN CHICKEN
Return the pan to high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel, and cut in half. When hot, fry the chicken until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.
HURRY WITH THE CURRY
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the sliced onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final minute, add the NOMU rub, and the curry paste (to taste). Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add 150ml of water and simmer until reduced, 5-6 minutes. Add the golden chicken and the corn.
