How To Make Ginger And Garlic Paste



This post is about making Ginger And Garlic Paste at home. It is delicious with steamed fish, fried rice, chicken, or as a dip on Hainanese chicken rice and Hot-Pot. I have several recipes that use this condiment, that I will share soon.





Ginger And Garlic Paste

Ingredients

500 grams (peeled weight) Ginger, coarsely chopped
100 grams garlic
2 Cups Peanut Oil
1 Cup Chicken Stock
2 to 3 tsp Sea Salt, or to taste

Method

Blend ginger, garlic with chicken stock until you have a fine paste.

Heat peanut oil over medium heat. Cook the paste until fragrant and the oil separates, about 20 to 25 minutes. Season with sea salt. Store the remainder paste in a jar, and refrigerate until further use.

    Just want to clarify, is it 100 garlic or 100 grams of garlic?

      2 weeks shouldn't be a problem...you can freeze it too.

      Thanks Angie. I've never made a cooked paste with stock and didn't have a clue. Freezing sounds like a good idea.

I can remember the ingredients but not the measurements! So, it took me about two hours to come up with the perfect recipes, and I'm glad I did! It was an instant hit! They were all gone, all gobbled up! Make the dough first, add about 480 to 500g of all-purpose flour with 300ml of water. Knead the dough and let it rest. You should be able to make 40 dumplings with the dough. Meanwhile, prepare the filling for the dumplings. Click here for the dumpling wrappers video.
