Thai Red Curry Paste - Omg.. smells amazing!
First time making anything like this before.
Took a bit of time as I had nothing prepared and have never used lemongrass stalks before hahaha.
Made about 480gm of paste.. so a few curries here. Just have to work out how much I like and go from there.
Can be stored in fridge for about 6 months... not sure it would last that long though - think I maybe addicted.
Just about to pop in some ice cube trays and freeze.
A delicious curry Liz. I did substitute ginger for galangal but was still fabulous. Will definitely be making again as my chilli bush is overflowing
Smells FABULOUS!! Had to substitute ginger for galangal and Vietnamese Mint for Corinader as we had none of either. Made four small jars. Looking forward to dinner tonight. Thanks for the recipe
thank you
Amazing. My only issue was that I should blend down the galangal more
