Thai Green Curry Paste
« on: June 09, 2013, 04:24:16 am »
I have just made this and it was delicious. It is from Fresh from the freezer, 100 delicious freezer-friendly recipes by Ghillie James
I may have to buy this book!

8 kaffir lime leaves, shredded
4 shallots, peeled and sliced (I used 2 red onions)
4 green chillies, deseeded  and chopped into 1cm chunks
4 garlic cloves, peeled
2 lemongrass stalks, trimmed
1x5cm piece of ginger, peeled
75g bunch coriander, stalks and leaves
handful of basil leaves.
1 and 1/2 tsp brown sugar
1tsp sea salt
1tsp ground coriander
3/4tsp Thai five-spice powder (optional)
2Tbs sunflower oil
2Tbs green peppercorns drained. ( I didn't have any)

Just whizz everything together except the pepperocrns,  with 2Tbs water until the mixture forms a smooth paste
Stir in the peppercorns

Freeze in ice-cube trays. ( It made about one tray)
To use
Add about 2-3 cubes per small can of coconut milk/cream
