Hello all.
New here.
I have been enjoying Mr Naga paste, but in order to get enough of that delicious flavour into a dish, I have found that it gets too hot, so I am trying to make my own version in which I remove the pith and seeds.
I'm aware, however that although the paste is 70% Naga Morich there are some added ingredients that give it that certain flavour. Paprika is listed, but beyond that, merely 'mixed spices'.
Just interested to know if anyone has a good idea as to what the spice blend might be?
My first thoughts are a general 'mix powder' - coriander, tumeric, cumin, fenugreek, paprika, etc, but maybe a mild madras powder? Really hard to tell just from smelling.
Any ideas?
So far I have 30 fresh Naga Morich, de-seeded and de-pithed, soaking overnight in barley malt vinegar...
