Directions

01

Make the green curry paste

Using a pestle and mortar, pound the shallot, garlic, ginger, and green chillies to a rough paste. Add the shrimp paste and continue pounding until as smooth as possible. A food processor works but gives a coarser, less fragrant result. The mortar ruptures the cell walls more completely, releasing more aroma.
