Purchased 4 pouches, but have only used one so far, the Southern Thai Green Curry. Great paste, with easy to use instructions. Flavours work very well. Heat level just right for me as I love spicy, hot food. I am very much looking forward to trying the other 3 packets purchased. Definitely will recommend to friends
This paste was great, I paired it with the lamb shank recipe on the my Thai curry website and it was absolutely perfect. The recipe was easy to follow, the paste delivered that beautiful flavour that a massaman curry gives you. An absolute winner
First time using these curry pastes and certainly not the last! So far I’ve tried the Massamam and the Thai yellow curry. Followed recipe for the whole roast Massamam chicken and added red pepper, onion and broccoli. I used prawns for the yellow curry, adding onion, potato, yellow and green pepper plus chopped coriander at the end.
Loved both of them and will definitely use again, so glad I’ve found these!
I have tried crying tiger paste to make a laab Kai . Perfect and brought the dish together well. Looking forward to trying the green curry paste . My new supplier of Thai pastes 😊

Wow, this is the first time I’ve had a Crying Tiger dish, so can’t make any comparisons with other versions, but it’s one of the nicest things I’ve ever eaten. I made it following Nitsa’s recipe, marinated the steak overnight, served with rice, asparagus, broccoli and green beans on the side. As described, it is very spicy and I’m used to spicy food, but not so spicy that it burns your mouth for 10 minutes and masks all the flavours. If you want a less spicy dish, you could just use it as a steak marinade and omit the dipping sauce, as the steak was also very delicious without the dip. I reckon one sachet could marinate three or four small to medium sized steaks, or two large ones. I used about a third of the paste to marinate a medium sized steak, so had 2 thirds left for the dip. There was quite a lot of dip left at the end, so next time I’ll buy more steak.
A very natural, fresh tasting sauce that’s obviously been made with top quality ingredients. Highly recommended if you like something spicy and tangy.
