1. Split open the game hens from the breast side and flatten them out into a butterfly shape. Throw away loose skin and fat. Broil the hens for 3 min on each side. Process the shallots, garlic, coriander, chili, ginger, turmeric, salt, lime juice and 1/2 c. of the coconut lowfat milk to a smooth sauce. Marinate the hens in the sauce for 15 min. Put the hens in a large skillet and cook over moderate heat for 10 min uncovered. Then add in the remaining coconut lowfat milk and the lemon grass. Bring to a boil and cook for 30 min, basting occasionally, till the hens are tender and almost all the liquid has evaporated. Serve hot.
