Kashmiri Paste
Soak overnight kashmiri red chillies along with ginger and garlic. Blend the 3 to get a fine paste.
Soaking is important as it gives a deep red colour and better flavor to the dish.
Tip: If at all you forget to soak the chillies then simply boil them in water for 3-4 mins. It is a quick fix for the colour.
