Review: Very nice curry paste, great for quick and easy dishes. - Very nice curry paste.. I did however make the mistake of not measuring properly as using a bit much paste the same as I did with the red curry if the same brand. If you've not really used these curry tastes before then I'd definitely say less can sometimes be more. If you want to enjoy the flavours and the coconut milk/veg/meat flavours then go on the lighter side of maybe 2 level tablespoons per can of coconut milk or if you want to be brave and get a kick from the chilli then I done 2 overly heaped tablespoons for one can if coconut milk the first time. It's very nice but also very easy to get carried away. Once you get the right amount for your tastes then this is a very nice curry paste. I will be trying the green curry and probably the tom yum next. Quick, easy and very enjoyable.
Review: Restaurant quality - 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 desertcart 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.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this genuine mae ploy the wording on the packaging is in german ..they should be imported from thailand**
A: I believe the product was produced in Thailand. The English and German language label is just a courtesy to the two main European markets.

**Q: What are the ingredients please?**
A: Dried red chilli - 20.5%; Lemongrass - 20%; Shallot - 16.5%; Garlic - 12%; Salt - 13.5%; Kaffir Lime peel - 1.5%; Coriander seed - 1.5%; Cumin - 0.5%; ;  Galangal (Ginger) - 7%; Mung bean - 4%; Shrimp paste - 2.5% and Pepper - 0.5%

**Q: Is it suitable for four year old child as well? If not can yiu recommend something very mild ?**
A: The strength and heat of the dish is dependants on the amount of paste used ie. 15-20 gms ratio to 1 can of coconut milk is very mild, 30-35 grams is generally medium, and 45+ grams per can of coconut milk I would say was hot. Also when, or if adding Pam sugar/sugar, or lime juice generally can tempers the heat/ chilli element of the dish - trial and testing will produce a dish to suite
By the way Mae Ploy in my opinion produce the best and most authentic paste. - Hope I’ve been of help

**Q: Is it suitable for vegetarians**
A: Not for strict vegetarians as it has shrimp paste in it. Hope this helps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Panang Curry Paste
*by A***R on 11 September 2025*

Excellent Panang curry paste which gives real depth of flavour and spice to a Thai curry. Much better in taste and value for money than the usual jars purchased in a supermarket. I paid £8.02 for the 1kg tub on 05.09.25.
