Here is the way I make fresh panang curry paste. I use mortar and pestal for a small amount of paste. You can use your food processor if you increase the amounts in this recipe by four, so the processor blade can grab the ingredients. Paste is easy to scoop even when kept frozen.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
