Recipe's preparation

  1. Roast coriander and cumin seeds for 4 minutes at Varoma temperature speed 1.

     

    When cool add peppercorns and grind on speed 10 until fine.

     

    Add all remaining ingredients.

     

    Mince on speed 9 with the help of the spatula – stopping to scrape down the sides of the TM bowl when necessary.

     

    Process until a smooth paste.

     

    Fresh paste can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks. As this recipe makes quite a quantity, it's best to place paste in an ice cube tray, cover and freeze. Frozen paste will keep for up to 4 months.

     

    Makes approximately 800g.

     

     

Tip

    Warm Up"Warm Up" I'm looking forward to using this paste. Made up 1.5 ice cube trays from the recipe quantities.

    I used long green chillies but cut down quantity to 3/4 of the ingredient list. Wondering if the author could update the recipe to say if they are meant to be small hot ones or long milder ones. I assumed long given the quantity.


    Also does anyone have tips to get rid of the curry paste smell from the green lid seal? I've washed several times in detergent and hot water, without luck.

    As per the link on my green chicken curry recipe (http://www.recipecommunity.com.au/main-dishes-meat-recipes/thai-green-chicken-curry/143510) I would use 100g of paste. ENJOY!

    Oh my goodness!  So wonderful!  Made the paste today but didn't have small green chillis so used about 10 long green chilies, deseeded.  Probably could have left the seeds in for a bit more heat but wasn't sure how it would work.  Still great. Have frozen the left over paste for the next time!  Thanks so much!

    If I was using big ones as that's all that was available, how many? They are about 12cm long

  • 13. October 2015 - 15:51

    I would say small. ENJOY! Angela
