Notes
- 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.
- Similarly if you can't find kaffir lime leaves, you can use either Merkut lime leaves or Simply lime zest( grate the skin of lime).
- You can make it more spicy as per your taste buds, just increase the amount of red chilli sauce accordingly.
