Method
First toast some of the spices: cumin and ground coriander for 2 minutes in a pan on a low heat. Add these toasted spices along with the peeled ginger, celery, lemon grass, garlic replacer (if used), chillies, black pepper, roasted pepper, tomato puree and lime leaves into a blender. Squeeze in the juice from the lime and add the fresh coriander and salt with a little water and blend to a smooth paste. Add more water if needed. Your paste should be smooth with no bits. This should make around 300g of delicious paste. Freeze the paste in 100g batches to use in many Thai recipes.
