Priya Ginger & Garlic Paste 300g

Priya Ginger & Garlic Paste is ground ginger and garlic in a ready-to-spoon paste, which takes the daily peeling and grinding out of the cooking. One spoonful stands in for roughly equal parts of fresh ginger and garlic in most Indian recipes.

Best for

• Curry and gravy bases
• Marinades for chicken, fish and paneer
• Biryani, pulao and dal tempering

Using it

Add it once the onions have softened and fry on medium heat until the raw smell goes and the paste stops sticking, usually a minute or two. Put it into oil that is too cold and it stays raw; put it into oil that is smoking and the garlic burns, which turns the whole dish bitter. About a tablespoon suits 500g of meat or a curry for four. Use a clean, dry spoon every time.

Pack and storage
