Curry Paste

Curry Ingredients

Method

Preparing the Curry Paste

  1. 1

    Soak the Dried Chilies

    Soak the dried red chilies in warm water for about 20 minutes until softened. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Paste

    In a blender or food processor, combine the soaked chilies, shallots, garlic, galangal, lemongrass, shrimp paste, and palm sugar. Blend until you achieve a smooth paste. Add a little water if necessary to facilitate blending.

Cooking the Curry

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Curry Paste

    Add the curry paste to the pot and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until fragrant and the oil starts to separate from the paste.

  3. 5

    Add Coconut Milk

    Pour in the coconut milk and stir well to combine with the curry paste. Bring to a simmer.

  4. 6

    Add Duck and Vegetables

    Add the chopped roasted duck, tomatoes, pineapple, and bell peppers to the pot. Stir to coat everything in the curry sauce.

  5. 7

    Add Kaffir Leaves

    Tear the kaffir lime leaves into smaller pieces and add them to the pot. Simmer for another 10-15 minutes until everything is heated through and the flavors meld.

  6. 8

    Season to Taste

    Taste the curry and add salt as needed to suit your preference.
