Quick tip: storing unwanted pastes and purees
If you have leftover pastes or purees, take a regular ice cube tray, and spoon the paste into the holes.
Simply freeze them, and when you need to use them you can pop the frozen cubes straight in the pan.
This is good for curry pastes, both Indian and Thai, and also tomato puree.
You may wish to put the ice cube tray inside a plastic bag to stop any debris from the freezer getting into the paste.
However it might not work as well in my very cool Tetris ice cube tray!
