Phat phrik

Phat phrik is a variety of dry Thai curry that usually combines green beans and a choice of fish, pork, or tofu. Just like other types of Thai curries, the dish is based on a thick paste consisting of different spices such as chilis, lemongrass, galangal, shallots, or kaffir lime leaves, and optionally ginger. The paste is fried before other ingredients are added, and the dish is usually seasoned with fish sauce and palm sugar. Phat phrik is typically served alongside steamed rice.
