Turn the heat off and transfer the spices to a spice grinder, small blender or pestle and mortar. Add the remaining ingredients for the paste and blend.
In a small pot over medium heat, add coconut milk and paste and whisk until the past has dissolved. Heat the coconut milk until hot (but not bubbling) and transfer to a bowl.
