- Preparation and cooking time
- Total time
- Easy
- Serves 4
Ingredients
- 200ml natural yoghurt (or 1 cup)
- 1 tbsp ginger, finely chopped
- 1-2 green chillies, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp sunflower/vegetable/olive oil
- Salt (to your liking)
Method
- STEP 1Add the oil to the pan and heat gently.
- STEP 2Add the chopped ginger and green chillies to the oil and fry on a low-medium flame, moving the ingredients around continuously for 1-2 minutes, without it burning.
- STEP 3Turn off the flame and allow to stand for 2 minutes to let the heat of the pan to dissipate before adding the yoghurt - otherwise as the yoghurt hits the hot pan it will curdle.
- STEP 4Add the yoghurt to the pan and stir to combine all ingredients. Add salt to your liking.
- STEP 5This sauce can be enjoyed immediately. However, on standing, it will acquire more of a ginger flavour as the flavours infuse into the yoghurt.
