- Some people use a food processor and some use a stone mortar or possibly pestle to blend all the ingredients of these pastes. If you are using a mortar, always grind the dry spices first and then add in the hardest ingredients such as laos and kencur, before adding shallots, chilies, and other soft ingredients. If you are using a food processor, blend the dry spices, then add in all remaining ingredients, except oil.
- Heat oil in a wok or possibly a skillet, add in the blended ingredients and cook over high heat, stirring frequently, for approximately 5 min till the paste turns golden brown. Cold before using.

- Comments: This paste is used mainly to neutralize the strong flavor of duck, lamb or possibly pork. It can be stored in a refrigerator for up to a week. However, it is always better to have pastes fresh before preparing a dish.
