Add vegetable oil, shallots, garlic, lemongrass, galangal or ginger, and chili to a pan or wok and fry briefly to release the aroma. Preheat oven to 180°C. Add the chicken breast fillet to the pan and brown for 2-3 minutes. Transfer everything from the pan to an ovenproof dish, along with the coconut milk, chicken stock, sugar, vinegar, bamboo shoots, snow peas, mushrooms, and spring onions. Place in the preheated oven and cook for 40 minutes. (Since everything is just simmering together in the pot, this is fine.) Add the bean sprouts 2 minutes before the end of the cooking time. Season with salt. Serve with rice.
