It's not difficult to make at home! Just follow our step-by-step guide below:

Step1 - Prepare Ingredients

• Before you start this recipe, make sure that all ingredients are prepared.
• To begin, you will need to peel and chop shallots (about 2 cups). Cut galangal root in small pieces, about 3 inches long. Set aside.
• Next, remove and cut the cloves of garlic (about four cloves). Peel and finely mince lemongrass stems (about 1/2 inch thick).
• You can then crush the red chilli bell peppers into small pieces (about 4 tablespoons), and then you can remove the seeds (optional).
• Cut the kaffirlime leaves into small strips, approximately 5 inches in length. Remove the white part of the stem and set it aside.
• Next, drain and wash the shrimp paste (6 ounces), and then coarsely mashing it.
• Measure out the sugar and salt.

Step2 - Grind Ingredients

Step3 - Add Coconut Milk

• To prevent the coconut milk from becoming too sticky, slowly add it.
• If you prefer less spicy, add fewer chillies and more galangal root.
• For a more spicy taste, increase the amount of chillies and reduce the use of galangal root. The final result should taste good to you.

Step4 - Serve

• Top with your favorite food.
• Enjoy!
