INSTRUCTIONS
This is used for beef and other robust dishes. Chop the shallots, garlic and lemon grass. Heat a heavy frying pan and add the coriander and cumin seeds after 2-3 minutes. Dry roast until they darken, shaking the pan to prevent burning. Allow to cool, then grind to a powder with the peppercorns. Remove the seeds from the chilies and chop. Pound or process all the ingredients to a smooth paste. For Green Curry Paste, follow the recipe for Red curry paste, using fresh green chilies instead of dried red and adding 2 tbsp chopped coriander leaves.

A Message from our Provider:
“Let us thank God heartily as often as we pray that we have His Spirit in us to teach us to pray. Thanksgiving will draw our hearts out to God and keep us engaged with Him; it will take our attention from ourselves and give the Spirit room in our hearts. #Andrew Murray”
