This
basic red curry recipe and method shows you exactly how to make your
own curry base at home. All Thai red curry pastes start with the same
base ingredients. They are lemongrass, galangal, coriander root, garlic,
shallot, and kaffir lime zest. Then, for each type of paste, there are
additional spices added so you can obtain the right flavor in your
Massaman, Prik Kaeng Ped, Panang, or other red curry. It's so nice to be
able to make these at home and control exactly what goes in, and the
texture of your finished curry dishes will be so much nicer than with
the packaged products.
