Mae Ploy Red Curry Paste, 400g

Product Information

This Mae Ploy Thai Curry Paste has a moderate level of heat and a complex blend of popular Thai flavors. Personally, I prefer these Thai curries quite thick but I think the authentic way is to have the sauce quite thin. Also native to Asia are shallots, an onion-like vegetable with a flavour sweeter and less potent than onions.

For example: yellow curry paste contains curry powder and turmeric, panang curry paste has cumin seeds and coriander seeds, massaman curry paste has a whole truckload of dry spices, and green curry paste uses fresh green chiles.

They're also used in many dishes beyond Thai curries, such as this cauliflower stir fry and Thai fish cakes.I chose only brands that have been around for a long time and have a good reputation; so they’re all coming in with a certain amount of cred. I chose only brands that are commonly available outside of Thailand; so nothing obscure, local, or specific to Thailand, the US or Canada. Don’t worry - The leaves are much more delicious than the bugs which share the environment with them.

It's a bit messy and time consuming but worth it in the end, Just squish it all out and tamp it well down and it will last for up to a year in the fridge.
