Steps

1

Remove the hard outer layer of the lemon grass then cut it at 1.5 inches long
2

Pound the lemon grass, peppercorn, coriander roots, garlic in a mortar and pestle to make a rough paste
3

Put the paste made in a mixing bowl and mix together with the chicken, fish sauce, sugar, oyster sauce and cornstarch
4

Let it sit for 30 minutes to an hour
5

Prepare a wok or deep pan with cooking oil and deep fry the chicken until golden brown. You need to include the bits of lemon grass in frying as those are also very tasty. You also need to remove any charred bits of the lemon grass to avoid making the oil dark.
