I could be talked into changing that viewpoint though.....maybe when my kid is older hahaha (we have some kind of chicken curry about once a week or a least a few times a month)

how long does it last if u make a batch fresh and store some of it?

Whats the best storage method?

Mortar N Pestle or food processor?

Have you tried some of the fresh pre-made pastes? (not the dry ones, but the 'wet' ones? Or any small batch/artisan/boutique vendors?)
I don't normally make enough to keep on hand. I make what I need. In most cases, I have the ingredients on hand. I'm not patient enough to use a mortal and pestle, so I'll grind spices in the spice grinder and do everything else in the food processor or Vitamix.
