Homemade Curry Paste
Use it as your base to soups, curries even throw it into a stir fry for amplified spicy, sour, slightly sweet and tangy flavour!
Ingredients
- 4 lemongrass stalks, tougher outer leaves discarded
- 4 medium-hot green chillies, seeded and chopped

- 5cm/2in piece ginger, peeled and chopped
- 2 shallots, peeled and finely chopped
