Red Curry Paste

1. Soak the chillies in 5 tablespoons hot water for 1-2 hours. (You could also put them in a microwave oven for 2-3 minutes and then let them sit for 20-30 minutes).

2. Put the chillies together with their soaking liquid, into a blender, along with all the remaining ingredients in the order listed.

3. Blend, pushing down with a rubber spatula as many times as necessary, until you have a smooth paste.

4. What you do not use immediately should be refrigerated or frozen.
