Ginger and garlic paste is a base for many Indian and south east Asian dishes. This recipe is inspired by the Thai version which also includes coriander root. You can buy ginger and garlic paste already made in Asian grocers, but there’s something satisfying about making your own. Plus it’s super easy and you know there’s nothing artificial in it, just ginger, garlic and salt, plus coriander root if you’re going down the Thai path. Once you’ve made your ginger and garlic paste, you can use it to prepare Thai five spice eggs (see video below).
Makes about 1 tablespoon
