Classic Peruvian green sauce for chips. Can be as mild or spicy as you want. Not salsa in the typical latin restaurant sense of the word, just a unique savory and tangy sauce for dipping. Refrigerate and keep for weeks!
Ingredients:
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped including stems
3 jalapenos (this will be very hot, remove seeds or use less to taste)
1 garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/3 cup water
splash lemon juice
Directions:
1. Add all ingredients and blend until smooth.
2. Use peppers, garlic, and salt to taste. Experiment as necessary, you can't go wrong. (For mild version, use 1/4 to 1/2 jalepeno pepper and remove seeds).
3. I recommend allowing to refrigerate a bit before serving to set and let flavors mix.
4. Serve with bread or chips.
