Mae Ploy Green Curry Paste - 1kg

A small amount gives flavor a lot gives heat! Overall delicious!

It's the one you want if you're trying to replicate a typical Thai restaurant curry. Nice and zingy. Be sure you can take a little spice, and portion accordingly. Since you found the right curry. I'll let you in on a little secret: if you're using coconut milk. As a logistics professional, I'll share with you my sourcing information. If you're in the United States, unless you have specific access to a proven coconut milk, BY FAR, the best coconut milk is Thai Organic. Not the regular thai red or the (grose) green versions: Not because its organic. Because it's the correct portion of oil-to-milk with the associated proper flavour. It can be sourced from COSTCO for around $10 for a 6 pack. This will also hopefully help ensure Costco keeps stocking this type. Also, I'm not affiliated with Costco nor am I a Costco-fiend of sorts but if you like Chicken curry, Costco's Tyson 10lb pack is the best quality chicken breast I can find out of all the stores. However they were out of stock so I've yet to submit my approval for the Kirkland replacement 6lb pound I recently purchased. Additionally, the big yellow onion pack at costco is also suitable for all your onion needs. They are nice and fresh, better than other stores and even restaurants I've previously worked at where they're all moldy right when you buy them or quickly become such. The Costco ones have strong multilayered skins yada yada yada, good buy. You're welcome.

I was skeptical but hopeful that this curry paste would be good, and boy did it satisfy my green curry cravings! Super flavorful and a little on the spicy side, but I'm pretty sensitive to spice and it wasn't too much. Feels authentic. Probably will buy the red curry paste version now. Highly recommend!

Very delicious, based on how much you use you can get it pretty spicy too ( use less for more mild flavor). Only real issues is the quantity....wish it came it a 1 lb tub ( instead of~2.25lbs) as you only uses few ounces for a main dish. I keep the unused portion in the freezer to extend shelf life (cut the corner off the internal bag and squeeze out what I need when I need it and hopefully will give me more time to finish it). Makes an authentic and fresh tasting green curry.

The best green curry paste!

Someone online mentioned this product so I ordered it and am not disappointed. I can now make green curry that tastes almost exactly like what I get at the local restaurant and it's crazy cheap. It's a little too spicy for my family but they are admittedly lightweights when it comes to spicy heat. If you or your loved ones don't like heat you're going to be spending a lot of time adjusting your curry trying to dial down the spiciness, some methods work better than others and don't dilute the taste. Or don't dial it down and eat all the curry yourself while cackling in glee. Just don't aspirate on your curry from laughing at them while you eat.

This is great green curry paste and is a game-changer for homemade Thai dishes. The authentic flavors make it easy to create restaurant-quality green curry at home. It has just the right amount of heat, enhancing the dish without overpowering it. This paste has become a must-have in my kitchen for its convenience and delicious taste. I use it weekly! I highly recommend it to anyone looking to elevate their thai dishes.

My bae is vegetarian and I have learned how to cook more vegetarian dishes. A lot of curry pastes have shrimp paste, fish sauce, squid sauce ETC. which he does not eat. This curry is perfect for us. I cut up veggies like potatoes, onion, turnip, daikon radish, bell pepper, Thai chilies, karot, mushrooms, broccoli, basil leaves, you can pick and choose, or add others. I put a generous blob of curry paste in a large large pot, and turn on the heat. I kind of spread the curry paste around until it smells very fragarant and parts of it start looking dry, I heard this "opens up the flavors". Im not a great cook, I just watch a lot of cooking youtubes. Once the paste is looking a little dry, I add coconut milk. I stir well until combined and not lumpy. Then I add my vegetables in rounds, starting with the hard root veggies and leaving leafy greens or tender veggies till the last 5 minutes. If the sauce is not flavorful enough, I add more curry paste and stir it in. I also add water or more coconut milk if needed, then I like to boil it down until the potatoes are cooked through. Taste the sauce as soon as the root veggies are in, may need more salt. I salt the sauce so that the potatoes and roots get seasoned as they cook. I serve it alone or with rice. Enjoy.

Amazing curry paste! This is my favourite green curry paste! If you follow the directions on the package you can make green curry that tastes as amazing as going out to an expensive Thai restaurant. It has a great spice level and you can decide how spicy you'd like it to be by increasing or decreasing the amount of paste you mix in with your coconut milk. My wife and I really like the amount recommended on the package. We mix in bok choy, and red peppers. It cooks nice and quick and then we serve it on jasmine rice!

This is a great curry paste that I've been using for a few years. It makes a delicious Green Curry with minimal effort. It takes very little paste to make a dinner and a single container lasts me over a year.

Nice flavour and fresh
