Panang Curry Paste 1kg - Bulk Authentic Thai Seasoning | Professional grade sweet thick curry base. Commercial catering pack perfect for rich peanut blended Thai curry sauces

Very nice curry paste.. I did however make the mistake of not measuring properly as using a bit much paste the same as I did with the red curry if the same brand. If you've not really used these curry tastes before then I'd definitely say less can sometimes be more. If you want to enjoy the flavours and the coconut milk/veg/meat flavours then go on the lighter side of maybe 2 level tablespoons per can of coconut milk or if you want to be brave and get a kick from the chilli then I done 2 overly heaped tablespoons for one can if coconut milk the first time. It's very nice but also very easy to get carried away. Once you get the right amount for your tastes then this is a very nice curry paste. I will be trying the green curry and probably the tom yum next. Quick, easy and very enjoyable.

I'm absolutely blown away by this paste, it's literally life changing! As we're now having this meal once a week. It produced one of the most tasty curries of any type that I've ever had, with the added bonus of being incredibly quick and simple to use. There's no need to over complicate the dish, you don't even need onions, garlic or ginger, it's all in the paste! (If you can take the heat of the recommended 50g). It's so tasty. I used 500g of diced chicken (portion for 2) to a wok in oil. After frying that off added the paste. I used the chicken first as all the water/chicken juice makes the paste much easier to work with, as it's very thick. As per another review gave it a good 4-5 minutes fried, then mixed it up and added 400ml coconut milk in 2 batches to ensure good mixing. (Tip, ensure you give your coconut milk a good shake in the tin before opening, otherwise most brands will separate). Things I did add was about half a tea spoon of demerara sugar, some fresh basil and a very small dose of fish oil. I then boiled some rice and that's it, simple! the whole dish can easily be done in 20-30 minutes. The downside - heat! If you don't like hot food (or at least 'medium heat' this isn't for you. The recommended use is 50g. I did this on first use to 400ml coconut milk it came out 'hot'. Probably the equivalent of your average madras from the local takeaway. Although this is hotter than I prefer, it was so tasty that I was more than happy to accept the added heat. My other half however, said it was too hot for her and didn't like it as she 'could only taste the heat'. 2nd attempt and I reduced the serving to 35g to 400g coconut milk. It was still hot, although my other half said it was better. In my opinion it did unfortunately lose a lot in terms of flavour. I couldn't describe 35 as 'packed full of flavour' but it was still enjoyable. If reducing to 35 or less, perhaps this is when you need to consider adding your own fresh garlic etc so boost the flavour. In summary, I think to enjoy this to it's fullest you do need to like hot food, and I'd really recommended starting off at 50g/400 and reducing from there. See what the maximum heat you can tolerate is, as the incredible flavour will be reduced. I really wish Mae Ploy made the same thing with less heat, as it just seem disproportionately hot. Not a deal breaker for myself but will be for some. Another note, when I brought this a few weeks ago it was around £1.95 with free prime delivery. It seems to have doubled in price now as amazon don't have it in stock. I already have a price alert set up! Unfortunately this is the one mae ploy paste that my local chinese supermarket doesn't sell.

Thus curry paste is to die for, very rich and hot great for making authentic curries

This is tasty, but it is turbo hot. Put a couple of tablespoons in to a curry, and it was as hot as an indian restaurant madras, bordering on vindaloo. I like it hot, but the missus could not handle it. Will half the amount next time

All things like this are a matter of personal taste but if you want to make a medium hot (IMHO) Thai style curry quickly then all you need is your protein and veg., coconut milk (or equivalent) and this paste.

Great penang paste! Good value for money too

Nice paste, not only for curry but also as a rub. Just be careful how much you use if you don't like it particularly hot

Used in a Nicky Corbishley (kitchen sanctuary) recipe. Delicious.

Wow, really very tasty. I sprinkled some roasted and chopped peanuts over the curry and it truly was delicious. I also marinated chicken breast chopped into very small cubes and filled puff pastry squares with the mixture. Also really tasty.

Pâtes de curry très aromatique et bien relevée

This is my mistake and not an error of the seller but it has fish sauce in the paste and I do not eat fish sauce so cannot rate the paste on typical areas. All I can say is that if you don't like fish sauce or can't eat it don't buy it.

I have been using the yellow, red, green and panang paste, and I love them. These are really good quality and pricing and go a long way with some coconut milk! Great value for the money and taste is fabulous. We never go out for curry any more as my husband says mine is better (thanks to these products). The green is slightly saltier, but I just cut it more with coconut milk. All are very flavorful, and I'm the wrong person to ask about heat level since I always add more heat, even to the ones that say hot. I buy the fresh thai chilis from the market and add them for a really authentic taste. Leakproof packaging is great and the bag inside the plastic containers help open containers last at least 5-6 big pot meals.

Too salty, unbearable, have to throw it. Not good for your health. Don't buy.
