(Ginger-garlic paste, अदरक-लहसुन का पेस्ट)
Adrak-lehsun ka paste is a blend of ginger (adrak) and garlic (lehsun), commonly used as a base ingredient in Indian cooking. It is made by grinding fresh ginger and garlic together, often in equal proportions, to form a smooth, aromatic paste.
This paste is a staple in Indian cuisine, providing a flavorful and aromatic foundation for a wide variety of dishes. Fresh ginger and garlic are the primary ingredients, sometimes with a little water, oil, or salt added to aid in blending and preservation.
The paste adds a deep, savory, and spicy aroma to recipes, enhancing the flavor of curries, gravies, stir-fries, and marinades. Many home cooks prepare this paste in bulk and store it in the refrigerator or freezer for convenience. The paste is widely used in curries, marinades, gravies, and rice dishes like biryanis and pulaos for added aroma and flavor.
