Notes

For a creamier sauce, stir in 1/2 cup coconut milk during the last 10 minutes of cooking. Use a mortar and pestle instead of a food processor for a more traditional, textured paste. The curry tastes even better the next day as the flavors deepen overnight. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
