Ingredients

  • ½ cup ginger skin peeled & chopped
  • 1 cup garlic skin peeled & chopped
  • ½ teaspoon oil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Scrap off the top part then peel the garlic skin, repeat to finish. The garlic pearls I used were quit big so chopped it further. just half or 3 slices per garlic that is enough. Measure and set aside.
  • Now take ginger peel the skin using a spoon that is very easy and makes sure that only the thin layer of the skin is peeled.
  • Chop it into smaller pieces. Measure and set aside.
  • The ratio I use is 1:2 (ginger : garlic). Measure after chopping. Add both ginger and garlic to mixer jar, add salt to it.
  • Add oil to it. Grind it to a fine paste. Store it in a clean dry container.
  • Refrigerate and use Ginger Garlic Paste as and when needed. Keeps well at least for 2 months.

Notes

  • Garlic - You can use small garlic too in that case no need to chop.
  • No water - Do not use water while grinding.
  • Oil - Do not add more oil than mentioned, this is just enough.
  • Salt - As salt is less you need not be mindful while adding this paste in recipes.
  • Grinding - I used normal mixie to make this paste, you can even use food processor.
  • Storing - Refrigeration is enough, no need to freeze it.Incase you want to store for more than 2 months then freeze it. But I would always prefer to make fresh batch every 2 -3 weeks.
  • Ratio - I always use 1:2 (ginger : garlic) ratio but 1:1 can work too.
