Wash the bean sprouts and drain well.
Step 3 of 9
Finely dice a red onion, the red chillies, the garlic cloves, and the Kaffir lime leaves. Make sure that you remove the spine of the Kaffir lime leaves before dicing as it is tough.
Step 4 of 9
Heat up some coconut oil in a frying pan then add the diced red onions from Step 3. Cook the onions until translucent. Then add the remaining ingredients from Step 3 and stir for a few minutes. Also add in turmeric and salt and stir.

Add shredded / grated coconuts to the frying pan and stir for a few minutes until well combined.

Toss in the bean sprouts and mix through quickly until just starting to wilt.
