CAN YOU USE FRESH LEMONGRASS IN THIS RECIPE INSTEAD OF LEMONGRASS PASTE?
If you have it, yes! You’ll find that fresh lemongrass in this recipe will give it such a unique taste and flavor. I use lemongrass paste because I can buy it all year round at the store but I always think that fresh ingredients are best to use if possible.
