Recipe from: Thai Folk dot Com
young fresh tamarind
pork
dried shrimps
shrimp paste
garlic
yellow chili and hot chili
Crispy fish may be used instead for people allergic to shrimp. Others ingredients are salt, fish sauce, palm sugar, pork cooking oil, salted crab, or horse shoe crab.
Clean the tamarind then finely pound it with a pinch of salt. Ground the dried shrimps, finely chopped the pork. Pound garlic with shrimp paste, hot chilies, yellows chilies, and pounded tamarind. Mixed with coarsely pounded dried shrimps, then blend it with the sour, salty, and sweet flavors. If salted crab is to be added, no need to fry the pounded paste. Just mix the torn crab and it is ready for serve. Or you may wish to mix it with minced pork and fry them together until well done, which is fragrant. If the horse shoe crab is preferred, just mix the chopped one now. Do not fry it because it would lose its good smell.
