Thai Green Curry Paste 绿咖喱酱2
1 stalk lemongrass 香茅
2 Tbsp. coriander seeds, pounded with pestle & mortar (or ground in a coffee grinder) 香菜籽
2 Tbsp. fish sauce 鱼露, or vegetarian fish sauce (or soy sauce if unavailable)
1 tsp. shrimp paste 虾酱
1 tsp. sugar
1-2 green chillies, de-seeded (or seeds left in if you like it very hot)绿辣椒,去籽
2 cloves garlic
1 thumb-size piece of galangal (or ginger), peeled and sliced 高良姜
3-4 kaffir lime leaves, frozen 菩提叶
1/2 to 1 cup fresh coriander, including the stems 香菜
1 tsp. dark soy sauce 老抽
1/3 cup coconut milk (or enough to keep the blades turning) 椰浆
1 cup Thai holy basil or sweet basil 罗勒
Place all ingredients in a food processor or blender. Process well.
To use the paste immediately, first fry it in a little oil until fragrant. Then add coconut milk plus your meat, seafood, or pasta and/or vegetables. Also add leftover lemongrass stalk.
When cooked, always do a taste taste for salt and spice. Add more fish or soy sauce if not salty enough, or more chillies if not hot enough. If too spicy, add more coconut milk. If too salty, add a squeeze of lime juice.
When serving, top your green curry recipe with another generous helping of fresh basil.
You can store your green curry paste in an airtight container in the refrigerator for use later. Paste will last 2 weeks (or longer), as the spices help to preserve it。
