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 PERANAKAN REMPAH IS…
Bright and fragrant with fresh lemongrass, lime leaves and golden turmeric. This spice paste is the vibrant base of Peranakan cooking, which combines the best of Singapore’s Malay and Chinese cultural influences. We love to use this to make curry laksa, jazz up stir-fries, or marinate satay chicken/ prawns/ tofu.
WHY REMPAPA

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.
