Red curry paste is the most common of all the curry pastes. It is used widely in many dishes that you are familiar with such as tod mun and satay.

nam prig pow - nam prik pow

This is a brown paste I buy in Thailand or prepare in advance and keep in the fridge. I've kept mine in the fridge for months. It is available here in the US in Oriental groceries in glass jars.
There are many variations of this, but the core mixture is: shallots, garlic, shrimp paste, dry chili pepper, salt, and sugar. Frequently there is also tamarind paste and dried shrimp.





namya curry paste - prig gang nam ya

This curry paste is a mix of shallots, garlic, lemon grass, galangal, gra chai, pepper, salt and shrimp paste.

It normally comes in a little plastic jar. If you keep it in the freezer, it stays good virtually forever.
