Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Hot oil. Never put water on an oil fire: turn off the heat and cover the pan with a lid or a damp tea towel. Pat food dry before it goes into hot oil, and lower it in gently, away from you.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Red and green curry pastes are the basis for most Thai curries. ~--------------------------------------------------------------------- ~-- Combine all the ingredients except the oil in a blender and process until smooth.
  2. Heat a small skillet on medium-high heat and add the oil. Slowly fry the curry paste for 5 minutes until it is fragrant. Remove and store in a jar for future use. Makes 2-1/2 cups. From: Thailand The Beautiful Cookbook. Typed by Syd Bigger.
