  • 3 cups (0.7 L) prepared Knorr® Fish Bouillon + 10 oz (0.3 L) prepared Knorr® Fish Bouillon
  • 2 tsp (10 mL) salt
  • 3 kaffir lime leaves, torn
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) fish sauce
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) palm sugar
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) tamarind paste

Instructions

  1. In a mortar, mix curry and shrimp paste with fish until fairly smooth. 
  2. Heat about 1/2 cup (125 mL) of the coconut milk in a pot; add curry paste mixture. Cook for 2 — 3 minutes or until spices are cooked and aromatic. 
  3. Add 2 ½ cups (625 mL) more coconut milk and 3 cups (0.7 L) prepared Knorr® Fish Bouillon; bring to a boil. Stir in salt and kaffir lime leaves, fish sauce and sugar; add tamarind paste. Adjust the taste to your preference. It should be a blend of salty, sour and a hint of sweetness.
