Minty Masala Butter

Minty Masala Butter

By OcadoLifePublished on 26 March 2023This aromatic Minty Masala Butter, from food writer and cookbook author Helen Graves, is a great way to add pizzazz to any number of everyday dishes. Try it melted slowly over roasted cauliflower, grilled fish or steak. It’s also delicious warmed in a pan and drizzled over houmous for a next-level dip. For more buttery pleasures, try the Miso Coriander Butter and Parsley, Black Olive and Caper Butter with Lemon.
