Analyzing cooking steps...
Making the curry paste from scratch is key to the authentic flavor. The recipe makes enough for two batches, so you can freeze half for later.
When blending the paste, use the chili soaking water instead of oil to achieve the right consistency. Oil can cause the paste to emulsify and become too thick.
This recipe uses a slow-cooking method which is perfect for chicken thigh or tougher cuts of beef, making the meat very tender.
The balance of sweet (palm sugar) and salty (fish sauce) is crucial. Always taste and adjust at the end of cooking.
If you can't find fresh kaffir limes for the peel, using just the leaves will still provide a great flavor.
