@thisbrownmom: Replying to @Romana Khan Green masala is a flavorful spice blend commonly used in Indian and South Asian cooking. It is a fresh, aromatic paste made by grinding together ingredients like dhaniya/coriander leaves, mint leaves, green chilies, garlic, ginger, and sometimes onions or coconut. The mixture is often enhanced with spices like cumin, garam masala, and lemon juice to balance the flavors. And it also helps remove the strong, gamey taste from meat. Green masala is versatile and can be used as a marinade for meats, a base for curries, or a seasoning for rice and vegetable dishes. Its vibrant green color and fresh taste make it a popular choice for dishes that need a zesty and mildly spicy kick. Recipe Ingredients: • 6 bulbs garlic, peeled • 1 large piece ginger about 100g, peeled and chopped (or 3/4 of the amount of garlic that you are using) • 3 green chilies (adjust to taste) • 2 cups fresh coriander leaves (stems included) • 10–12 curry leaves • 2 tbsp water (or as needed for blending) Method: 1. In a blender or food processor, add the garlic, ginger, chilies, coriander, and curry leaves. 2. Add a little water and blend into a smooth paste. Scrape down the sides as needed. 4. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze in small portions for longer use. For biryani, add fresh mint or prepare a new batch just before using, as mint tends to darken quickly. #greenmasala
