Red Curry Paste (Nam Prik Kaeng Daeng) Directions
Place the cumin and coriander seeds in a pan, without adding any oil.
Dry-fry them, stirring, over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes until

Coarsely chop the chilies and soak in water for 10 minutes. Drain.
Pound all the ingredients together to produce a fine paste. This
curry paste goes well with all meats.
