    Place red chile peppers in a bowl and cover them with warm water. Let sit until rehydrated, about 10 minutes. Drain.

    Place green chile peppers, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, mace, and cardamom in a large, dry skillet over medium heat. Toast until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.

    Transfer red chile peppers and toasted spices to a mortar and pestle. Add shallots, garlic, lemongrass, cilantro root, peppercorns, lime leaves, galangal, shrimp paste, and salt. Pound together into a coarse paste. The past will keep in the refrigerator for several weeks.



    Cook’s Note

    You can use a food processor, but the flavor is much better if you use a mortar and pestle.

    Use 3 to 4 tablespoons of the Panang curry paste in your curry depending on how spicy you like it.
