Proteins \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0I think juicy prawns go particularly well with panang curry, plus you get to re-purpose the heads to get free, bonus flavour into the stock which makes this really special. If using\u00a0<strong>pre-peeled prawns<\/strong>, using 350g\/12 oz and skip the stock making steps.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>Chicken \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>Recipe works perfectly with chicken too! Use 350g\/12oz, thinly sliced. Skip the stock making steps, cook chicken as per recipe does with prawns.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>2. Chicken stock?<\/strong>\u00a0Yes! Store bought fish\/seafood stock is really not good. But chicken stock is much better, and gets infused with prawn flavour from the prawn heads (which is where most of the prawn flavour is!).<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>3. Use Chinese dried chillies,<\/strong>\u00a0not Thai or Indian! I know it sounds strange to tell you to avoid Thai dried chillies but they are SUPER spicy and don\u2019t reduce in spiciness much when cooked. Same with some Indian ones are too (like kashmiri). My team and I did a lot of testing around chilli types for this curry re: excessive spiciness.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>Check label<\/strong>\u00a0for country of origin, use Chinese chillies. Though the spiciness of Chinese chilli types and brands will vary, I found that the cooking process in this curry reduces the spiciness of the chillies so they end up being the same level of spiciness. Be brave! Try not to reduce the chilli too much because they are also a key flavouring for the sauce. If you can\u2019t handle spicy food, I suggest skipping this recipe!<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>Quantity \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>Dried chillies vary in length so the number you need will vary, from (say) 12 very large ones to 40 small ones for 2\/3 cup when whole (20g, with seeds in). You need enough so you have 1\/2 cup (15 g) chillies once chopped \/ deseeded.\u00a0<strong>Be sure to deseed thoroughly<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 the seeds are where most of the spiciness is!<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>4. Lemongrass prep<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 cut the reedy end off, we\u2019re only using the white and pale green part, around the bottom 20cm\/8\u2033. Trim root off, peel off reedy outer layer. Then grate using a microplane, discard stringy bits left. Sub: Fresh is best here but if you can\u2019t get it, use 1 tablespoon of lemongrass paste instead.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>5. Galangal<\/strong> \u2013 looks like ginger but is more citrusy and harder. It\u2019s pretty tough so best to grate to ensure your curry paste is smooth. You can find it in Asian stores. Substitute: use the same amount of ginger + 1\/4 tsp lime zest.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>6. Shrimp paste in bean oil<\/strong> \u2013 I use Por Kwan Shrimp Paste in Bean Oil, the most popular one sold at Asian grocery stores here in Australia. Substitute with 1 1\/2 tsp belacan dried shrimp paste, roughly chopped\u00a0 + 1 tsp oil + 1 tsp fish sauce + 1 garlic clove + 1 tsp miso, if you can \u2013 any type). Use in place of shrimp paste in recipe.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>7. Kaffir lime leaves<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Earthy lime flavour unlike anything else! Sold at Asian stores, Harris Farms &amp; large grocery stores in Australia. Freezes 100% perfectly \u2013 used in Thai red curry, coconut rice, Thai meatballs.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>8. Thai basil leaves<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Fresh herb used in Thai cooking that tastes like Italian basil with a slight aniseed flavour. Sub with Italian basil.<\/span><div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>9. Leftovers\u00a0<\/strong>will keep for 3 days in the fridge or 3 months in the freezer. Keep basil separate \u2013 it degrades once stirred in.<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Video\"><\/span>Video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Panang Curry\" width=\"850\" height=\"478\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RBDAnG8KEZQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Video<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11338,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1924,2506,136,2505,2877,697,454],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11341","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-curry","category-dinner","category-entree","category-lunch","category-simmered","category-stove-top","category-thai"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-06_120401234.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11341","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11341"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11341\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11345,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11341\/revisions\/11345"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11338"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11341"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11341"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhiggs.x10hosting.com\/foodie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11341"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
