INGREDIENTS

  • Ingredients:
  • 1 tbsp Yorkshire rapeseed oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 tbsps coarsely grated ginger
  • 2 garlic cloves, sliced

METHOD

Heat the oil in a large pan, add the onion, ginger and garlic and fry for 5 minutes until starting to soften. Stir in the nutmeg and cook for 1 minute more.
