# Massaman Curry Paste Recipe

Cuisine: thai · Time: 30 minutes · Servings: 1

## Ingredients

- 1.5 tbsp coriander seeds
- 2 tsp. cumin seeds
- 4 whole cloves
- 1/2 tsp. cardamom powder
- 1 tsp. white pepper powder
- 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
- 2 tsp. cinnamon
- 5 Guajillo dried peppers, or Thai long spur chilies, but I can’t find them in America so I always use Guajillo
- 2-3 Thai dried chilies (optional) If you want to add some spiciness, add in the Thai chilies, but Massaman is not typically spicy, so I normally don’t add the chilies, but go for it if you prefer spicy!
- 2 tsp. coarse sea salt
- 2 tbsp. galangal, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp. lemongrass, finely sliced, use the core between the root end and the leafy bits
