                                Ingredients
- 5 medium sized green chili peppers I used jalapeno peppers, though Thai green chilies are great, or serrano peppers for hotter curry
 - 1 stalk lemongrass minced (or use 2 tablespoons prepared lemongrass paste)
 - 1 shallot chopped
 - 5 cloves garlic chopped
 - 1 tablespoon chopped galangal or use ginger
 - 1/2 cup cilantro chopped, stems included
 - 1/2 cup Thai basil or use fresh basil or spinach
 - 2 teaspoons coriander seeds
 - 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
 - 1/2 teaspoon white peppercorns or use white pepper
 - 3 tablespoons fish sauce
 - 1 teaspoon shrimp paste
 - Juice from 1 small lime
 - salt to taste
 
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a food processor or blender. Process them until a thick green curry paste forms nice and uniformly.
 - Alternatively, you can use a mortar and pestle to grind the ingredients together. I often use my molcajete.
 - Adjust for salt and spices. Use as needed.
 
Notes
- Heat Factor: Medium. You can dial back on the heat with milder peppers, or increase the heat with more jalapeno peppers or hotter peppers.
