A work colleague gave me this Thai paste to try. There are instructions on the back but just wondered if anyone had tried it and had any tips

Ok, I'll just go with the instructions on the packet, kinda

Sorry Garp can't help out here ya on you own!

None whatsoever other than it reminds me of an old film I like...P'tang, Yang, Kipperbang!  ;D

Sadly, SS, I actually remember that film - and Kes 

Anyway the Thai Panang Yang Kipperbang (as it shall now be known) wasn't bad at all - not great but not bad. Mrs G liked it as it was nice an creamy but had a hint of chilli heat.

They filmed a lot of that film in the alley at the end of the road where I grew up.

Never heard of the film, but I wonder if its name was inspired by the Northumbrian sheep-counting dialect ("yan, tan, tethera, ...") ?
