  • 1 Tbsp (15 mL) coconut oil
  • 1 Tbsp (15 mL) grated ginger
  • 2 tsp (10 mL) minced garlic
  • 2 tsp (10 mL) yellow curry powder
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) turmeric

Directions

  1. Heat coconut oil in a sauté pan over medium to high heat. Sauté ginger and garlic.
  2. Add curry powder and turmeric and allow to bloom briefly. Add coconut milk and reduce by 30% to tighten the emulsion.
