Did you know? This aromatic paste blends Thai and Indian flavors with turmeric's golden hue. Lemongrass adds citrusy notes while galangal provides earthy warmth. Thai curries use color-coding - yellow is mildest, perfect for Indian palates. The paste includes shallots and coriander roots for depth. Traditionally ground in stone mortars, it's now a freezer staple in urban homes. Use with coconut milk for curry or as marinade. Modern versions might add Kashmiri chilies for less heat. A versatile base for quick weeknight meals with veggies or paneer.
