Ginger Recipes FAQ
What do you serve with ginger lime chicken?
Jasmine or basmati rice makes for a perfect accompaniment to ginger chicken dishes of all kinds. Alternatively, serve it with noodles, which also work well for chicken with ginger and spring onions.
How do you cook ginger chicken?
Marinade chicken pieces in garlic, soy sauce and freshly cut ginger. Fry it in a wok until it has browned on all sides. Then fry an onion, adding honey, soy sauce and chicken stock to make a sauce before returning the chicken to the wok.
How do you reduce the ginger taste in chicken curry?
Don’t add any ginger until the end to help prevent ruining the dish. If it has too much ginger already, add yoghurt or introduce acidity with vinegar or lemon juice.
Can you replace fresh ginger with ground ginger?
In many cases, fresh ginger can be replaced with ground ginger. That said, ground ginger loses its flavour over time, so you may need more of it.
What can you use ground ginger for?
Because it is powdered, ground ginger works well in baked goods, such as recipes for ginger cake. Use it in drinks, such as tea or smoothies, but take care when following ginger bug soda recipes with ground ginger since they tend to call for fresh ginger.
