Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

7 Dried chilies 2 tb Chopped krachai

Soak dried chilies in hot water for 15 minutes and deseed. Into a
blender, put all ingredients except the shrimp paste and blend until
mixed well. Then, add the shrimp paste and blend once more to obtain
about 1/2 cup of a fine-textured paste.

This can be stored in a glass jar in the refrigerator for 3-4 months.

in fish dishes.)
