The story behind it
Where Khua Kling comes from
Khua Kling is a dry curry: it is fried without liquid until the paste coats every fiber of the meat. Originally, this was a practical advantage — without sauce, the dish kept longer and was easy to take with you.
What remains is the intensity: because nothing is diluted, you can taste every individual ingredient in the paste.
