Yellow Curry Paste (Nam prik gaeng karee)

Nam prik gaeng karee is the name for yellow Thai curry paste. Although there are variations, it's usually made with a combination of yellow chili peppers, shallots, galangal, garlic, lemongrass, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, shrimp paste, fish sauce, turmeric, white pepper, brown sugar, coconut milk, tomatoes, and lime juice.

The ingredients are blended into a smooth paste, and the paste is then used to make yellow curry, which often contains beef, lamb, or chicken, potatoes, onions, and pineapple.
