Mini-guide: how to use curry paste and spices
- Briefly fry curry paste in a little oil or the thick part of coconut milk for 1-2 minutes to release the aromas.
- Add coconut milk, broth, or water, and let the dish simmer to allow the flavours to meld.
- Season with fish sauce, soy sauce, sugar, lime, chili, or herbs, depending on the dish.
- Use a smaller amount the first time with strong pastes and chili, then adjust the strength.
Tip: Preparation can vary by brand, size, and product type, so always follow the package instructions when cooking with the products.
