Mae Rusmee Narok Dried Fish Chilli Paste 90g

Mae Rusmee Narok Dried Fish Chilli Paste (น้ำพริกปลาป่นนรก แม่รัศมี, nam phrik pla pon narok mae rat-sa-mii) is a ready-to-use Thai dried fish chilli paste (nam phrik pla pon, น้ำพริกปลาป่น) from Mae Rusmee in the narok (นรก, “hell”) style — meaning a bolder, spicier version of the classic dried fish chilli paste. Nam phrik pla pon is one of the most fundamental and widely eaten nam phrik varieties in Thai home cooking — a simple, deeply savoury, and satisfying chilli paste made from ground dried fish, dried chillies, garlic, and shrimp paste, pounded together into a paste that is intensely flavoured and perfectly suited to eating with steamed rice and fresh or blanched vegetables. It is the kind of everyday condiment that forms the backbone of a simple Thai home meal — a bowl of steamed jasmine rice or sticky rice, a spoonful of nam phrik pla pon, and a plate of fresh vegetables is one of the most common and beloved everyday meals in Thai households. The narok designation indicates a spicier, more assertive version. The 90 g jar is a compact, convenient format.
