Maesri Masaman Curry Paste, 14 Ounce

It’s delicious and lasts forever. What more could you want?

Delicious almost close to the one I get at my favorite restaurant. Easy to make, full of flavor.

I’ve used it 2x and have enough for 4-6 more meals it’s delicious!

I've used this brand (Mae Sri aka MaeSri) for decades. I prefer it to Aroi Dee or Mae Ploy - the other two major brands commonly available. For making a variety of well-known Thai dishes. Popularly known as 'gaeng garee.' Very nice-tasting, a distinct sweetness; perhaps a bit more mild than other Thai curries. Can be made spicier by the addition of long strips of red and/or green chilis while cooking which also enhance the beauty of the finished curry. It is one of two popular curries popular in the Southern part of Thailand - the other being Penang curry, which is red in color. Actually there is another one I cannot recall the name of at this moment. They're all good.

I love this product. I add it to many of my dinner options. It is low priced and does not go bad.

Costco boneless beef short rib. Seriously. Cut into large cubes. Season generously. Well browned on one side only. Transfer to a plate. Fry the masaman paste (2 oz per lb of beef,) in the fond for a minute, then sweat your aromatics (onion, carrot, bay leaves,) to scrape up everything. Lastly adding your coconut milk to make the curry come together after simmering for a few minutes. I add it all to the Instant Pot and increase the liquid level with 1 cup beef broth (plus or minus 1/3 cup,) so the pressure will come up. Manual mode, high pressure for 20 minutes. Natural release, of course. Once the pressure is released, I add 3 or 4 yukon gold potatoes, small dice, and turn on the saute function. Let the potatoes cook until fork tender, about 10 minutes. Add peanuts if you like (YES!) and this is better than your favorite Thai restauant. Serve with coconut rice! Great leftovers after all the flavors come together overnight. Trust me.

We get restaurant-quality masaman curries from my InstaPot with this not-so-secret ingredient from Maesri. I've been using their yellow curry for many years and recently bought the sampler pack so we could figure out our favorite. Hands down this Masaman Curry paste has won us over.

Arrived undamaged. This product is always consistent. It is as advertised.

Easy to use all in one curry mix. Saved me a lot of preparation time without losing the flavour. Keep clear of any clothes you value though as any splashes will stain badly. I added some puréed onions and a bit more garlic and fresh chilli - but you do not need to. I read this was the “Go To” masaman paste and I thoroughly enjoyed the result although I have not used any other such pastes yet as I normally make my recipes from scratch. Possibly only fault is the high price and I will probably try some other cheaper brands to compare.

Was recommended to use this brand by an Australian chef naga recipe tin ,this is my 3rd purchase my friends and family all use it now

Bit more expensive than other brands but rhis tastes amazing. Follow instructions on outside and you cant go wrong. Add a little single cream makes it even better.

Good product

Made a delicious curry with the paste. Full of flavour and easy to use
