GREEN CURRY PASTE [SAMBAL HIJAU]

This recipe is from Chef Margaret.  She used green chillies, shallots, garlic and lemongrass to make this lovely green sambal.  This sambal is good to use for cooking chicken or fish.  It is very aromatic and tasty, too and a simpler version compared to the authentic Thai version. 
You can prepare the green chilli paste ahead and store for later use.  Stay tune for another 2 recipes using this sambal.
Recipe adapted from Yum Yum Magazine No. 60 with modifications

    I love Thai green curry! This must be spicy with the chili padi, just as I like! I love spicy dishes!
