Panang Curry Paste 400 g | Authentic aromatic Panang curry seasoning paste. Medium jar size ideal for rich peanut style curry beef chicken pork

I have been using the yellow, red, green and panang paste, and I love them. These are really good quality and pricing and go a long way with some coconut milk! Great value for the money and taste is fabulous. We never go out for curry any more as my husband says mine is better (thanks to these products). The green is slightly saltier, but I just cut it more with coconut milk. All are very flavorful, and I'm the wrong person to ask about heat level since I always add more heat, even to the ones that say hot. I buy the fresh thai chilis from the market and add them for a really authentic taste. Leakproof packaging is great and the bag inside the plastic containers help open containers last at least 5-6 big pot meals.

As someone new to cooking Thai dishes at home, I was both excited and a little nervous to try my hand at making curries. After years of enjoying Thai cuisine in restaurants, a recent food allergy diagnosis pushed me to start cooking at home so I could control the ingredients. After some research, I chose Mae Ploy’s Panang curry paste and I have been very pleased with my first attempts at Thai home cooking..The complexity of the spices and the perfect balance of heat delivered exactly what I was looking for. It brought authentic flavor right into my kitchen, and my first few attempts have been surprisingly good. I look forward to experimenting with other Mae Ploy products.

I've been using this Panang curry paste lately with Aroy D coconut milk, chicken, peppers, onions, garlic, ginger, and kefir lime leaves. I'm making restaurant quality curry now. This and the lime leaves are the secret ingredients to amazing curry. I've tried a red curry paste from another company that didn't have the shrimp paste, and while really good, just didn't have the same level of flavor as this. I'm on my second container of this; I can't get enough of it.

Delicious, easy to use, lasts a long time, doesn’t go bad in the fridge.

An absolute MUST if you are making curry and want authentic flavor and convenience!! And it's so delicious!!

So good

Mae ploy - our go to when we don’t make our own. All are great; green curry is our favorite. Reasonable price and fast delivery.

Great stuff. We found it easy to adjust the spice level by changing the amount of paste added. We have used this many times and have recommended to friends.

Wow, really very tasty. I sprinkled some roasted and chopped peanuts over the curry and it truly was delicious. I also marinated chicken breast chopped into very small cubes and filled puff pastry squares with the mixture. Also really tasty.

Pâtes de curry très aromatique et bien relevée

This is my mistake and not an error of the seller but it has fish sauce in the paste and I do not eat fish sauce so cannot rate the paste on typical areas. All I can say is that if you don't like fish sauce or can't eat it don't buy it.

It was very useful and very tasty but wish it was less spicy

I'm absolutely blown away by this paste, it's literally life changing! As we're now having this meal once a week. It produced one of the most tasty curries of any type that I've ever had, with the added bonus of being incredibly quick and simple to use. There's no need to over complicate the dish, you don't even need onions, garlic or ginger, it's all in the paste! (If you can take the heat of the recommended 50g). It's so tasty. I used 500g of diced chicken (portion for 2) to a wok in oil. After frying that off added the paste. I used the chicken first as all the water/chicken juice makes the paste much easier to work with, as it's very thick. As per another review gave it a good 4-5 minutes fried, then mixed it up and added 400ml coconut milk in 2 batches to ensure good mixing. (Tip, ensure you give your coconut milk a good shake in the tin before opening, otherwise most brands will separate). Things I did add was about half a tea spoon of demerara sugar, some fresh basil and a very small dose of fish oil. I then boiled some rice and that's it, simple! the whole dish can easily be done in 20-30 minutes. The downside - heat! If you don't like hot food (or at least 'medium heat' this isn't for you. The recommended use is 50g. I did this on first use to 400ml coconut milk it came out 'hot'. Probably the equivalent of your average madras from the local takeaway. Although this is hotter than I prefer, it was so tasty that I was more than happy to accept the added heat. My other half however, said it was too hot for her and didn't like it as she 'could only taste the heat'. 2nd attempt and I reduced the serving to 35g to 400g coconut milk. It was still hot, although my other half said it was better. In my opinion it did unfortunately lose a lot in terms of flavour. I couldn't describe 35 as 'packed full of flavour' but it was still enjoyable. If reducing to 35 or less, perhaps this is when you need to consider adding your own fresh garlic etc so boost the flavour. In summary, I think to enjoy this to it's fullest you do need to like hot food, and I'd really recommended starting off at 50g/400 and reducing from there. See what the maximum heat you can tolerate is, as the incredible flavour will be reduced. I really wish Mae Ploy made the same thing with less heat, as it just seem disproportionately hot. Not a deal breaker for myself but will be for some. Another note, when I brought this a few weeks ago it was around £1.95 with free prime delivery. It seems to have doubled in price now as amazon don't have it in stock. I already have a price alert set up! Unfortunately this is the one mae ploy paste that my local chinese supermarket doesn't sell.
