You can use dried anchovies instead of dried shrimps for this recipe. You can adjust the amount of chillies used to your preference.
The ground paste can also be ground using mortar and pestle. To save time, using a blender is fine as well. Just ensure the paste is coarsely blended and not too fine.
If using water spinach (kangkung), use only the tender leaves and the top part of the stem. Discard stems closer to the roots as they can be quite tough.
