1
Clean the chillies, cut lengthwise, remove seeds and wash. Chop red and green chillies separately. Peel garlic and chop finely. Crush the green chillies and garlic finely in a mortar or puree them in a mixer.

Clean, wash and cut the peppers into strips. Peel shallots and cut them into fine slices. Dab meat dry and cut into thin slices. Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan.
