Ginger Garlic Paste
Report
Ginger Garlic Paste is a key ingredient for Indian and Asian cooking and is a meal prep essential. Rather than buying it, I prefer making my own as freshly homemade paste has more flavors and goodness inside.

Instructions
Using Pestle and Mortar
- Peel the garlic, ginger, and turmeric.
- Cut them into small pieces (around 1 cm - ½" cubes).
- Put all the ingredients into the mortar.
- Don’t fill the mortar more than half, repeat the process if necessary.
- Crush with the pestle until they all form a smooth paste.
- Place the paste into a clean airtight jar if you will store the paste in the fridge, or in ice cube trays if you will freeze the paste in batches.
Using Food Processor
- Peel the garlic, ginger, and turmeric.
- Cut them into small pieces (around 1 cm cubes).
- Put the garlic, ginger and turmeric in the food processor.
- Blitz it while slowly adding the oil until forming a paste.
- Place the paste into a clean airtight jar if you will store it in the fridge, or ice cube trays if you will freeze it in batches.

Notes
- Use peeled garlic to save some time or use large garlic cloves as it will take less time to peel them!
- If using a mortar and pestle for making Garlic Ginger paste, adding a little sea salt would help the process of turning them into a paste.
- I prefer using silicon ice cube trays as they are flexible and easier to remove the frozen Garlic Ginger Paste. Once they are frozen, place them into freezer bags and keep them in the freezer for further use.
