Instructions

If using a mortar and pestle:

  1. In a mortar and pestle, pound garlic and chilies into a paste.
  2. Add the palm sugar and pound until dissolved.
  3. Add cilantro stems and pound into a paste.
  4. Add fish sauce and lime juice; swirl the pestle to mix. Store in the fridge in a tightly sealed container.

If using a blender (for making large enough amount to blend)

  1. Combine all ingredients in the blender and blend on medium speed just until there are no more big chunks. You do not want to completely liquefy it; you want to see some visible chili seeds and little bits.
