Ginger Garlic paste was one which i was planning to post for a long time. Last week a friend asked for the recipe, especially to store the Ginger garlic paste, i thought i will post this recipe soon. Though i know fresh Ginger garlic paste will always be goo, but for working people and also for busy mornings, if we keep it handy for a week or two it will be very useful. Instead of buying the store bought Ginger garlic paste, it is always easy to make the home made one.
