Notes

  • Cooking oil - Use a neutral cooking oil such as avocado, canola, or sunflower for this recipe. 
  • Ginger - For best results, use fresh ginger to make the paste, crushing it in a mortar and pestle or grating it using a handheld tool. When you prepare the ginger for the end stage, please make sure to julienne it as thin as possible.
