whisk and set aside. Heat the oil in a large skillet and cook the
garlic, about 1 minutes. Remove and discard the garlic.Add the
lemon grass,lime leaves, chicken, and stir-fry until the chicken
turns white and loses its raw look. Ad the yogurt mixture and
stir-fry until the chicken turns completely white and the sauce
has cooked down into a coating, not floating cream. Stir in the
sugar, mint leaves, and fish sauce. Add the cayenne. Pour in the
lime juice, to taste. Remove from heat and keep warm. Cook the
cabbage slices and mushrooms in a hot skillet with just enough
stock or water to create a little stream. Toss until heated through,
about 2 minutes.

chicken on top. Serve with a small bowl of steaming short-grain
white rice on the side.
