Hi i regularly make thai curries using the curry paste in jars (red, green Panang) but lately have found they dont as much flavour or taste as i am after. can anyone reccommend a good curry paste that will make an awesome curry as we eat them alot. ive tried all the asian shops but they seem to have the same brands as the supermarket (Greggs or Exotic). i have thought about trying to make my own but wouldnt know where to start:-))
thanks in advance.

Have you tried the Asian Home Gourtmet? They are pretty flavoursome.
