Product Information
REM-WHAT?
Rempapa comes from the word ‘rempah’, which means spice paste in Malay. Founded by cookery writer Shu Han Lee, Rempapa's range of curry pastes and sambals are packed with the flavours she grew up loving and make cooking incredible Southeast Asian dishes at home fun and simple.
THE BALINESE REMPAH IS…
Bold and rich with spices, balanced by fruity tamarind and fragrant galangal. The spice paste draws from the lush flavours of Bali, an Indonesian island known for its use of spices with fresh herbs and fruits. We love to use it as a shortcut to rendang, to spice up nasi goreng (Indonesian style fried rice), or to marinate meat/ seafood/ tempeh.
WHY REMPAPA
Rempapa pastes are all vegan-friendly, gluten-free and soy-free, and made of all-natural ingredients - so everyone can enjoy them. Each jar is packed full of aromatic herbs and spices - no watering down! Just stir in coconut milk and simmer with your favourite ingredients for a gorgeous, flavourful curry. Or add a dollop to stir-fries and marinades for instant spice and depth.
Check out our recipes and tips below under “Usage’, or head to rempapa.com for more inspiration. Each jar serves 4-6.

Your favourite fresh ingredients e.g. 2 chicken thighs, or 100g king prawns, and/or a handful of your favourite vegetables – two if you’re making a vegan curry!

REMPAPA’S RENDANG RECIPE
Serves 6 (this is one to make loads of to impress your guests/ freeze for rainy days!)
1 tablespoon of coconut/ veg oil
1 jar of Rempapa Balinese Spiced Tamarind
400ml coconut milk
Salt, to taste
1kg beef shin/ ox cheek, cut into 3cm cubes
3 heaped tablespoons of dessicated coconut, toasted
Fry the paste in oil over medium heat, until fragrant. Stir in coconut milk, a splash of water and a big pinch of salt. Once bubbling, add the beef, along with just enough water to cover. Cover and simmer gently on low heat, or in the oven at 150C for 8 hours. Halfway through, add the dessicated coconut and give it a stir through. The rendang is ready when the meat is fall-apart tender; and the sauce is rich and thick enough to just coat the meat.

REMPAPA’S NASI GORENG RECIPE
Serves 2
1 tablespoon of coconut/ veg oil
2 eggs
1 handful of crisp veg (e.g. chopped green beans)

250g cooked long grain rice, chilled (or a microwaveable packet!)
2 tsp kecap manis
2 tsp soy sauce, or to taste
Handful of chopped spring onions and/or fresh coriander

Fry the eggs over medium heat in a wok and set aside. Turn the heat up to high and add your vegetables, stir frying until tender. Now stir in the spice paste and fry for another minute.
