This homemade ginger garlic paste is a kitchen staple made with fresh garlic and ginger to help you cook your favorite Indian and Pakistani dishes quickly!
Wash and peel the ginger, then cut it into chunks.
To a blender or food processor, add the cleaned garlic and ginger. Top with ½ cup of oil.
Blend until it is a fine, smooth paste.
Storage
To freeze: Transfer the ginger-garlic mixture into a clean ice cube tray. Freeze for 3-4 hours until solid. Then transfer the cubes to a ziploc bag and store it in the freeze. We like to label the bag with the date when you made the paste.
Fridge: To keep the paste in the refrigerator, fill a mason jar or any airtight glass container with the ginger garlic paste. Add a little bit of oil to the top to help the ginger-garlic paste last longer
