- 1 cup fresh lemongrass, tender parts sliced thinly (remove ends and outer dry leaves)
- 1 cup galangal root, peeled and sliced
- 3/4 cup kaffir lime leaves, deveined and julienned
- 1/2 cup shallots, whole
- 1/4 cup garlic, while
- 1 1/2 Tbsp turmeric powder
- 1-2 Tbsp water
If using a mortar & pestle, place a few tablespoons of each ingredient and pound until it is a paste. Do this as many times as needed to get through all the ingredients.
If using a food processor, place all ingredients except water into machine and pulse a few times to break the ingredients down. Add a splash of water, 1-2 Tbsp, and run until a paste forms.
Freeze the extra!
