Killer Thai curry paste--forget Thai Kitchen

I clicked the GFCF link and liked what I saw, but the paste is an abomination to me!

Here's a killer recipe for Thai curry paste:

I must preface this with: I love onions, garlic, spicy food and basil.
You may need to adjust your amounts if you don't like these flavors.

I'll put a asterisk (*) next to the ingredients you might need to adjust.

3/4 cup chopped scallion *
1/2 cup minced chopped basil *
3 Tbs. minced fresh garlic *
3 Tbs. fresh lemon or lime juice
2 Tbs. brown sugar (if you like less sweet before the mouth burn, reduce this.)
2 Tbs. fresh, grated ginger root (You can use jarred ginger if you're lazy.)
1 or 2 minced green chiles. (Leave seeds in for napalm Thai curry; remove seeds for tolerable Thai curry.)*
1 Tbs. coriander
1 tsp. turmeric
Salt and pepper to taste

Whirl this up in a food processor until it has a paste-like consistency.

Add it to the GFCF recipe instead of the Thai Kitchen paste.

Worlds apart.
