If it is not soaked then it is chewy. Some people like it chewy. If you saute it longer then it may get a little crunchy. Very nice but do be prepared for a very pungent but good(to me) aroma! but very tasty indeed. I hope u'lll find an asian store nearby. try a little first to see if you like it. Im guessing that it may be costly there.<br /><br />but please dont try the belacan (shrimp paste) ..u will NOT like it....the smell..at all.. ..lolZurinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10209420293425025235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808270100062024875.post-67963223444026370462010-08-05T08:38:20.155+08:002010-08-05T08:38:20.155+08:00I need to find a Thai / Asian supermarket here.

Say a small pingpong ball size would suffice?<br /><br />When you say this:<br /><br />Pour 2-3 tablespoons of oil into a wok and saute the pounded <br />ingredients until fragrant and until they turned a darker colour and looks slightly crusty on the surface.<br /><br />My grandma calls this the 'pecah minyak' stage, not sure if you've heard of it but it essentially is like what you described and the oil just separates from the paste.Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05186520384489064575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808270100062024875.post-46161279128512158152010-08-04T18:54:21.935+08:002010-08-04T18:54:21.935+08:00So.
