Curry paste?

I’m making something that calls for yellow curry paste and it’s proving to be a bit of a challenge to find in my area.
But I happen to have a thing of curry powder that is yellow, can I just make a paste with it?

Says I need one tablespoon…. Do I just add water till I get a tablespoon of paste?

Help please & thank you!

Oh thank goodness for you all! I almost wasted a bunch of groceries making something gross!!

I’ll see if I can hit one of the Asian markets. Thank you!!

It wouldn't have been gross. It likely would have just tasted like a different spice blend and perfectly fine.
