Description
Panang curry paste is a key ingredient in making Panang curry, a popular Thai dish known for its rich, creamy texture and complex flavors. The paste typically consists of ingredients like dried red chilies, garlic, shallots, lemongrass, galangal (a type of ginger), kaffir lime zest, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, shrimp paste, and sometimes peanuts or other spices.
To make Panang curry paste, these ingredients are traditionally pounded together using a mortar and pestle until a smooth paste is formed. However, you can also make it in a food processor or blender for convenience.
Panang curry paste is used to flavor various dishes, including Panang curry itself, as well as soups, stir-fries, and marinades. It adds a depth of flavor and spice that is characteristic of Thai cuisine.
