Panang Curry Paste 400g
The Rich, Creamy & Nutty Favorite
Create the ultimate comfort curry with Maesri Panang Curry Paste. Known as "Kaeng Phanaeng," this paste is widely loved for its rich, sweet, and creamy flavor. It stands apart from standard Red or Green curries by offering a thicker sauce that clings beautifully to the meat. This makes it perfect for those who enjoy a hearty, velvety curry instead of a watery soup.
Maesri Panang Curry Paste provides an authentic taste experience inspired by traditional Thai cuisine. The paste’s unique blend of ingredients creates a complex, well-rounded flavor that is both savory and zesty. This paste is the choice of chefs looking for a curry that balances richness with a subtle nutty aroma.
Authentic Ingredients Blend for Superior Flavor
This authentic paste features a sophisticated blend of dried chilies, galangal, lemongrass, coriander root, and cumin. Each ingredient is carefully selected to ensure maximum aroma and flavor. The dried chilies add a mild heat that warms the palate without overpowering it. Galangal and lemongrass contribute their distinct fragrant notes, making every bite uniquely Thai.
One special highlight of this paste is its zesty aroma of Kaffir Lime. Kaffir lime leaves provide a fresh, citrusy scent that brightens the curry. The paste also has a subtle nutty flavor that many cooks enhance by adding crushed peanuts while cooking. This nutty undertone creates a richer mouthfeel and offers a delightful contrast to the curry's other flavors.
Why Panang is a Unique Choice in Thai Curries
- Richer Consistency: The Panang curry paste is designed to be cooked with thick coconut cream. This creates a velvety, gravy-like texture that truly sets it apart from other Thai curries.
- Complex Flavor Profile: Panang curry achieves the perfect balance of salty, sweet, and zesty lime notes. It is generally milder than Green Curry, making it more accessible for those who prefer gentler spice levels.
- Best Value: The 400g tub size is perfect for large families or meal prepping. It offers restaurant-quality flavor at a fraction of the cost, making it an economical choice for home cooks.
- 100% Natural Ingredients: Maesri products never contain MSG, preservatives, or artificial colors. This guarantees a clean and authentic Thai taste in every meal.
- Versatile Usage: While Beef Panang is the classic pairing, this curry paste also works beautifully with pork, chicken, and firm tofu. This versatility makes it a practical addition to any kitchen.
Cooking Tip: Achieve the Authentic "Dry" Curry Method
To get the genuine restaurant-style texture when cooking your Panang Curry, follow these steps carefully. Each step enhances the paste's flavor and creates the signature thick sauce that clings to the meat.
- Start by frying the paste in a little oil until it becomes fragrant. This releases the essential oils and deepens the flavor.
- Add thick coconut cream (never thin coconut milk) and simmer gently. Continue cooking until the oil separates, which signals the sauce is ready.
- Add your choice of meat, such as beef, and cook it until tender. The meat absorbs the rich flavors of the curry sauce.
- Finish by stirring in a dash of palm sugar and fish sauce. This step balances the flavors with sweetness and umami. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
