To make the curry paste, blend the shallots, garlic, ginger and chillies to a smooth paste, using a mini food processor or stick blender. For the curry, heat the coconut oil in a large non-stick pan over a medium heat and add the curry paste. Fry for 3–4 minutes, stirring continuously. Add the ground spices and fry for a further 2–3 minutes until fragrant. Add the creamed coconut, tamarind paste and salt.
