Phanaeng Thai Curry Paste - Prik Gaeng Panaeng

Panaeng Curry Paste (Phanaeng) – Authentic Taste of Thailand

Panang curry, also known as phanang curry or panaeng curry, takes its name from several sources. The name "panang" comes from the Malay word "phanang," which refers to a type of curry made with peanuts or peanut paste .

The different spellings result from the transliteration of the Thai name "แกงพะแนง" (Kaeng Phanaeng) into the Latin alphabet . Since there is no standardized method of transliteration, various spellings such as Panang, Panaeng, or Phanaeng arise.
