Rempapa Balinese Spiced Tamarind Curry Paste is a bold, aromatic spice paste inspired by the layered flavours of Bali and made in London by Rempapa. Built around fruity, sharp tamarind and warm whole spices, it delivers depth, richness and gentle heat in one spoonable paste.
Using around 15 carefully balanced ingredients - including cinnamon, cardamom, star anise, galangal and kaffir lime - this paste creates a complex, rounded base for curries, rice dishes and marinades. It’s flavour-forward rather than fiery, designed for slow, savoury cooking with minimal effort.
Perfect for confident midweek cooking or weekend dishes that taste like you’ve spent hours layering flavour.
