    \n
  1. In a stone mortar and pestle pound coriander, cumin and peppercorn seeds until they are a powder.<\/li>\n
  2. Add lemongrass, ginger, lime, garlic, turmeric, and shallots to mortar and pound until there isn\u2019t any obvious sinew.<\/li>\n
  3. Add dried chillies and salt pound unit pieces of chilli cannot be made out from the rest of the matter (again not an easy task, right arm starting to feel it now. The finer you chop the easier this will be. There\u2019s a story here but\u2026 wait 7 weeks).<\/li>\n
  4. Add shrimp paste and pound to mix in the paste.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    NOTES:<\/p>\n

    The big question for us Anglo-Saxons\u2026\u2026 Difference between red and green curry\u2026. I REALLY hate to say it\u2026 essentially nothing. Just the red or the green chillies!!! A restaurant may choose to differentiate but strictly, no heat difference.<\/p>\n

    Only use the white bit of the lemon grass. The rest can be used for a kick arse tea<\/p>\n

    To keep stir fry for a couple of minutes, let cool and put in a container in the fridge. It will keep for a few months<\/p>\n

    The finer you chop stuff up the less pounding. Chop stuff fine, it takes less effort.<\/p>\n
