Cock Brand Red curry paste 400 g

✨ Cock Brand Red Curry Paste for classic Thai curries

Cock Brand Red Curry Paste is a convenient way to build the bold, aromatic base that many Thai dishes start with. It brings that familiar red-curry character—warm spices, savory depth, and a lively heat—so you can get a restaurant-style flavour at home without measuring out lots of individual seasonings.

Use it as your starting point: gently fry a spoonful in a little oil (or with coconut cream) until fragrant, then add coconut milk, vegetables, tofu, seafood, or meat. It also works well as a quick marinade or to enrich soups and stir-fries when you want a Thai-style kick.

✅ Key features

• Fast flavour foundation for Thai-style cooking—great when you want depth without a long ingredient list
• Easy to control heat and intensity: start small, taste, then add more as you simmer
• Fragrant when briefly fried first, helping the spices “open up” before you add liquids
• Versatile beyond curry: useful for marinades, noodle soups, and spicy stir-fry sauces
• Good pantry staple for quick weeknight meals with coconut milk, stock, or even a splash of water

🍽️ How to use

• Classic red curry: fry paste, add coconut milk, then simmer with chicken, tofu, aubergine, bamboo shoots, or mixed veg
• Quick noodle soup: stir a little paste into broth, add noodles, greens, and your protein
• Marinade idea: mix paste with oil (and a touch of coconut milk) and coat meat, tofu, or mushrooms before roasting or grilling
• Curry fried rice: sauté paste with aromatics, add cooked rice and vegetables, finish with lime and herbs
• Dipping sauce shortcut: blend a small amount into coconut milk or mayo for a spicy dip for skewers and snacks
