Frozen fried and blended onion paste


There are times when you don't feel liking seeing your kitchen at all, let alone cooking for yourself and family. Yes, that's so true and applies to almost every women. For your ease, what you can do is, fry batches of onions, lets say 5 to 6 onions thinly sliced in a karahi. Make sure you deep fry them on medium flame so that they would not burn and turn into nice golden brown color. Once nicely fried, take them out on a newspaper, let them dry and crisp.

Then blend the fried onions in your blender with as much water as required to make a paste consistency.

Now the best part, all you have to do is take your ice cube trays and fill them with your fried onion paste. Once you are done, freeze them and there you go.

Yay!!!

Quickest way to cook a shorbay wala salan and even gravies. You can make yummy Aaloo gosht, loki gosht, bhindi gosht, name it and you can easily cook it in no time.
You just have to take the cubes out and put them directly into the oil. Yes, thats it!

Now Enjoy Cooking without much hassle! :)
