Mae Ploy Thai Yellow Curry Paste 400 g

A really tasty spicy paste. Note, however, that it contains enough salt for your entire dish. I like salt and it’s fine for me as long as I don’t add salt to anything else.

Excellent taste hot paste, melted easily in the pan, very authentic, good colour, if too hot add more yogurt to your taste. Good quality paste, very easy to use. I am entirely happy with this product, also freezable.Recommended

First time using this and first time doing any Thai curry and it was absolutely amazing, would highly recommened.

I enjoyed this curry (I made it with coconut milk, beef, onion and peppers) but I found that it was not hot enough for my liking and so added an additional teaspoon of paste (making three heaped teaspoons in total). This brought the spiciness level up, but also made the curry pretty salty. This was alright for me as I like salty food (although I wouldn't be eating it regularly because I wouldn't want to consume THAT much salt on a regular basis) BUT my friend said that it verged upon being TOO salty for her liking. Judging by the reviews this seems to be a common theme. Probably not what you want if you're on a low sodium diet. Regardless, I would recommend this paste - but not the red curry one from the same company as I found that to have virtually no flavour other than salt and chilli peppers.

Nice product

So tasty. Has a ‘kick’ to it.

I ordered this as I had discovered through my son,Thai yellow curry from a local takeaway which was delicious, however I didn't want to buy lots of takeaways as I wanted to know what was in them.My son pointed out there is a high salt content but when broken down into portion sizes it probably works out to be around half a teaspoon per portion, probably still a bit high but as a treat every few weeks it should be fine.I made up the sauce but I got my proportions wrong, so I opened up another can of coconut milk and then bit by bit added the previous sauce I had made along with some sugar, it has turned out amazing, lovely flavours and a perfect heat to it.I definitely recommend it but add a little paste at a time until you find your own perfect sauce, and don't rush into putting loads of paste in like I did.It's very easy to use and potentially can make a quick meal once you know your proportions.

I was really excited to receive this product but after following the on pack instruction the resulting curry was far too salty - and i have a high tolerance to salty foodDisappointed is an understatement - i cannot recommend anyone buys this product unfortunately
