Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
-
How "mild" is this curry paste?
This is one of Patak's gentlest spice blends. It focuses on aromatic, earthy flavors like cumin and turmeric rather than chili heat, making it an excellent "starter" curry for those sensitive to spice.
-
Can I use this for non-meat dishes?
Yes, it is highly recommended for vegetarian and vegan cooking! It works beautifully with chickpeas, lentils, cauliflower, sweet potatoes, and paneer. Its subtle spice profile enhances vegetables without overpowering their natural flavors.
-
What is the best way to cook with this paste?
Sauté: Gently fry a finely diced onion in a splash of oil until soft.
Infuse: Add 1/3 of the jar (approx. 2–3 tablespoons) of Patak's Mild Curry Paste and fry for 1–2 minutes to release the aromatic oils.
Finish: Add 500g of your chosen protein or vegetables, stir to coat, and add 100ml of water (or coconut milk for a creamier finish). Cover and simmer on low heat until your ingredients are tender and perfectly cooked.
-
How should I store the paste after opening?
To maintain optimal flavor and freshness, store the jar in the refrigerator after opening and use within 6 weeks. Always use a clean, dry spoon to serve and ensure the surface of the paste remains level.
