Notes

  1. Galangal is the main ingredient of this recipe.  I couldn't find it in my local grocery store so I used ginger in my recipe. However if you can source galangal, please use that.
  2. Similarly if you can't find Merkut lime leaves, you can use either kaffir lime leaves or Simply lime zest( grate the skin of lime).
