    How to Prepare Massamun Curry Paste [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

    1. Stem and seed the dried red chilies. Soak them in warm water for 10-15 minutes or until soft. Drain and squeeze dry.
    2. Dry roast the coriander seeds, cumin, cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and peppercorns in a pan over medium heat for 5-7 minutes or until fragrant.
    3. Using a mortar and pestle, pound and grind all the ingredients, adding in each new ingredient only after the previous one is pureed and incorporated into the paste.
    4. Alternatively, combine all the ingredients in a food processor and process into a smooth paste, adding a small amount of water to facilitate blending. Use as needed to make Massamun curry or freeze for later use.

    Notes

    This recipe yields roughly 1 cup of curry paste, and Massamun curry typically calls for 3-4 tablespoons. The remaining paste can be frozen for later use.
