How to make Ginger Garlic Paste at home

written by Amila Gamage Wickramarachchi July 16, 2013


Homemade Ginger Garlic Paste

Homemade Ginger Garlic Paste
Ginger garlic paste is an essential for cooking; most of the recipes including Sri Lankan recipes require ginger garlic paste, specially recipes like chicken curry. Until recent, I used to grind this when it is needed for a recipe. But it takes time to grind it frequently for each recipe and thought of preparing it in a large amount. However I still prepare it in a small quantity which is enough for 1-2 weeks.

How to make and store ginger garlic paste
Preparing ginger garlic paste is easy & simple. But need to add some oil & turmeric powder to keep it for few days in a fridge without spoiling. Thanks to all foodies who shared homemade ginger garlic paste recipes over internet!
Few tips to keep in mind:
-Use an air tight container to store the Ginger Garlic Paste.
-When use it, use a separate dry spoon for it.
-Donโ€™t add water as it will spoil the paste.
-Tightly close the lid after using as it has a strong flavor & can spread to other foods inside the fridge.

I need it all the time, I mean its the essential for Indian dishes. I usually blend garlic and ginger separately and store in the freezer but will try out your version with turmeric.
