Time 40m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup small dried red chiles, seeded and coarsely chopped
10 whole peppercorns
1 tablespoon whole coriander seed, toasted
1 teaspoon cumin seed, toasted
2 stalks fresh lemongrass
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro root, or leaves and stems
2 tablespoons finely chopped, peeled fresh galanga or ginger
1 teaspoon minced wild or domestic lime zest
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped garlic
1/4 cup coarsely chopped shallot
2 teaspoons shrimp paste
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Place chiles in a small bowl of warm water to soak for 20 minutes. Combine the peppercorns, coriander seed and cumin seed in a mortar and grind to a powder with a pestle, or use a spice grinder. Set aside.
  • Trim any grassy tops and hard roots off the lemongrass, then finely chop the stalk. Place the lemongrass, cilantro, galanga and lime peel in the mortar and grind to break them down. Add the garlic and shallot and grind until a moist paste forms, about 5 minutes.
  • Drain the chiles and add them to the paste in the mortar. Add the spices, shrimp paste and salt and grind well. Transfer paste to a jar, cover tightly and refrigerate.

I've tried a lot of different red curry pastes, but this one is by far the best. It's so flavorful and has the perfect amount of heat.

This recipe is a lifesaver. I used to buy red curry paste from the store, but it was always so expensive. Now I can make my own for a fraction of the cost.

This red curry paste is a game-changer! It's so easy to make and adds a ton of flavor to my dishes. I love that I can control the heat level by adjusting the amount of chili peppers I use.
