Homemade Red Curry Paste Recipe

Step 1

Add all of the ingredients to a food processor or blender. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.

Step 2

Alternatively, you can grind down the solid ingredients and spices in a mortar and pestle, then slowly add in the liquid ingredients as you mix. Mix until a paste forms to your preferred consistency.

Step 3

Taste and adjust to your personal tastes. Need more salt? More lime juice? A pinch of sugar? Adjust as needed.

Step 4

Strain out excess liquid, if desired, or use as-is.
