1. Put shallots, garlic, ginger, turmeric, and lemon grass in a blender and process into a paste. 2. Put soy sauce, water, and sugar into a large frying pan. Heat (to help sugar dissolve). 3. Put chicken thighs in frying pan and cover with paste. Simmer, uncovered, until cooked (20-30 minutes). Turn about halfway through to ensure even cooking. 4. Heat enough vegetable oil to deep-fry the chicken. Oil must be VERY hot - almost to the smoke point. 5. Remove chicken thighs, season with salt and pepper, and deep-fry 6-8 minutes until surface is crisp and golden. 6. While deep-frying chicken, heat the remaining water and drippings to thicken. Use this as a dipping sauce for the chicken. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
