How to make chilli paste
20 - 30 dried chillies (more if you like it hot)
5 - 6 cloves garlic
2 onions - cut into small
1 tbsp turmeric powder
2 cups water
(optional - 50g belacan/shrimp paste)
Cut dried chillies using scissor, remove the seeds and soak the chillies in hot water for 15 minutes, rinse in cold water and sieve the water out
In a blender put 1 cup water, onion, garlic and turmeric (and belacan) and blend it for 2 minutes than add the chillies and another cup of water and blend it until super fine
