Could I substitute the lemongrass for a lemongrass paste?
HollyWednesday 3rd March 2021
Hi Kelly, yes you can use ready prepared lemongrass paste refer to your jar for suggested measurements equivalent to 1 stalk of fresh lemongrass, hope that helps!
Natalie SwanSunday 1st March 2020
Could you add chilli powder or flakes if you don’t have fresh chilli. Or even lazy chilli?
LisaWednesday 6th May 2020
Hi Natalie, yes you can substitute any of those for the fresh chilli, but be careful! Dried chilli can be much more powerful than the fresh equivalent, so use it sparingly unless you like things firey!
Jo FisherThursday 26th September 2019
