Method

  1. Wearing rubber gloves, stem and seed the chiles and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Soak for 20 minutes in a bowl with enough hot water to cover. Drain the chiles, reserving 1 tbs of the soaking liquid.
  2. Place the peppercorn, coriander and cumin seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring until fragrant, being careful not to burn them. Cool the spices and finely grind them in a blender or an electric spice grinder. In a food processor puree the chiles to a paste with the reserved soaking liquid and the ground spices.
  3. Add cilantro, ginger, lime zest, lemon zest, paprika, nutmeg and oil and process until smooth. Keep the curry paste tightly covered in the refrigerator.
