Notes
- Thai green curry recipe
- This recipe will make roughly 1/3 cup of green curry paste. This is enough for one batch of a typical Thai green curry recipe.
- Nutritional information is calculated for 1 tablespoon of curry paste and without added sugar.
- How to store: Homemade curry paste can be prepared and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 weeks. Over time, the ingredients will lose their potency and become darker, so it's best to use it within a few days after making it.
- How to freeze: You can make a double or triple batch and freeze some later. To do this, place 1-2 tablespoons into ice cube trays, freeze, and then transfer to a freezer-safe Ziploc bag or container for up to 1-2 years.
