Thoroughly clean the chicken intestines by rinsing them under water. Boil them in water for about 15 minutes to remove any impurities, then drain and set aside.
In a blender or mortar and pestle, grind the shallots, garlic, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, candlenuts, red chilies, and galangal to form a smooth spice paste.
Heat the cooking oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the spice paste and cook, stirring constantly, for about 5-7 minutes until the paste is aromatic and the oil begins to separate from the paste.
Add the lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, bay leaves, and turmeric powder to the pot. Stir well to combine with the spice paste.
Introduce the boiled chicken intestines to the pot, stirring to coat them thoroughly with the spice mixture.
Pour in the coconut milk and water, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer. Add salt and sugar, adjusting seasoning to taste.
Continue to simmer over low heat for about 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken intestines are tender and have absorbed the flavors of the broth.
Remove from heat and serve hot with steamed rice.
