Set Up Your Space
Lay all your ingredients out on the kitchen counter. It’s best to measure everything ahead of time—it saves you from searching the spice rack mid-recipe. Trust us, prep is key.
🥣 Mix the Marinade
In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients except the oil. Start with the dry spices and flavor boosters: paprika, garlic paste, ground cumin, hoisin sauce, vinegar, mustard, and a drizzle of honey. Stir well until the mixture becomes smooth and evenly blended.
Next, slowly pour in the oil while continuing to mix. This helps emulsify the marinade, creating a thick yet pourable consistency that will coat your ingredients beautifully. Take your time with this step—it’s the foundation of flavor for the entire dish.
🥄Blend Everything into a Smooth, Creamy Marinade
Use a spoon, spatula, or whisk to mix everything thoroughly. Focus on the cream cheese—it might resist at first, but gently press it with the back of your spoon or stir continuously until it melts completely. You’re aiming for a smooth, lump-free sauce with a creamy texture and bold color. This is the heart of your marinade, and the flavor starts right here!
👌 Final Result: Rich, Smooth & Ready to Work Its Magic!
And here it is—your Signature Flavour-Packed Marinade Sauce in all its glossy glory! You can see how beautifully everything came together into a thick, rich blend of bold spices, sweetness, tanginess, and creamy goodness. It’s smooth, lump-free, and packed with flavor in every spoonful.
Use it right away to marinate your favorite cuts of chicken, beef, lamb—or even drizzle a little over roasted veggies. Trust me, this is the kind of sauce that doesn’t just sit quietly in the background—it makes your dish unforgettable.
💡 Tips for Success
- Mix slowly: Add the oil gradually while stirring to create a thick but smooth marinade—no separation!
- Room temperature cream cheese: Let the cream cheese soften slightly before mixing so it blends better.
- Taste as you go: Don’t hesitate to adjust sweetness, saltiness, or spice before using the marinade.
- Rest before using: Let the marinade sit for 5–10 minutes after mixing to allow the flavors to blend fully.
- Store leftovers: If you make extra, keep it in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 3 days.
