below: pounding the rempah - in this order
1. shallots
2. garlic
3. combine shallots and garlic - set aside
4. red & green chillis and/or chillipadi
5. combine shallots, garlic, chillis - set aside
6. fresh turmuric and ginger - pound & set aside
in my photos, i added more shallots
when i realised that i did not have enough shallots
we do the agak agak method
(estimate the quantity of herbs & spices)
frying the rempah takes a lot of patience.
we need to know when the rempah is cooked enough to move to the next step of cooking.
after frying the rempah, i added the thick coconut milk - this is following a thai method of cooking - the thais say that the coconut milk will have natural oils to flavour the rempah over heat and this technique will add a new dimension to flavours during the cooking process.
enjoy!
