    Making Ginger and Garlic paste at home

    Homemade Ginger and Garlic paste is perhaps one of the handiest things to have in the fridge as part of meal planning and prepping. This gets done in matter of minutes and saves you so much work when cooking meals!

    Are you, like me, a meal prepping pro? Yes? This home made paste is just the thing you need to have as part of your weekly/fortnightly meal prepping plan! A spoon or two of ginger garlic paste elevates the taste of any dish and takes it to another level altogether! While there are SO many brands out there with their own ginger garlic paste, nothing beats the taste and flavour of a small batch of G-G paste made at home!

    Both Ginger and Garlic have immense health benefits. Read more about the health benefits of ginger and garlic.

    Step by Step method of making Ginger Garlic Paste at home

    Ginger and Garlic are the two main ingredients in this paste. I add a few more ingredients to it which to enhance the shelf life. Don't worry - they are all natural ingredients - no chemical or preservatives here! The other ingredients are : salt, oil and water. That is it!

    Ingredients for G-G paste

    Chop equal quantities of ginger and garlic into pieces. For this recipe, I recommend that you weigh the ginger and garlic for exact equal quantities for best taste. I peel the skin of the ginger - it is ok if you cannot peel all the skin off. Use a spoon to scrape the skin off. Measure out 15 ml of oil, 30 ml of water and 1 teaspoon of water. Grind them all together in a mixer grinder to a smooth paste.

    Store this paste in a clean, airtight glass bottle. This paste stays good in the fridge for up to 10 days.
