Mint cilantro sauce
Mint cilantro sauce
This year my herbs are doing really well, so I wanted to make sure I used them in their prime. This sauce allows the herbs to shine and adds brightness to anything you pair with it.
Yields: ½ cup
Ingredients
½ cup fresh mint – leaves and tender stems
½ cup cilantro - leaves and tender stems
1 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 clove
1 tablespoon jalapeno – minced
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon rind or lemon powder
2 tablespoons canned coconut milk – solids only
¼ cup water or liquid from the coconut milk
½ teaspoon pink salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
Step
Put all the ingredients in a blender. Blend to the consistency you desire. It is a great sauce for a variety of Indian inspired dishes. Try it with roasted spiced vegetables, chickpea masala, or curry wraps along with or instead of a fruit chutney.
