Curry paste
Im not a connoisseur
Where can you get it nowadays , used to buy it in supermarket and now everything is packaged as a source to go with your meat . And you have to have Pataks or else |
Thai or Indian paste ?
Why am I asking? :mad:- make your own.. |
|
Sainsburys sell curry paste, or they used to.
Do you not have an asian food store anywhere near you? buy the ingredients dirt cheap and whip up a home made batch. |
Make Your Own
