What a difference a sauce can make to pep up a steak or a piece of chicken and there’s nothing simpler than shoving everything into a food processor and voila, thirty seconds later you have a shiny, bright green thing of loveliness.
TIP There are a number of recipes for this sauce, mostly using parsley. My love of coriander, however has led me to use half and half and it really is truly delicious.
1 large bunch of flat leaf parsley
1 large bunch of coriander
3 cloves of garlic, crushed
2 tbs red wine vinegar
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp dried oregano
2 red malagueta chillies (or 1tsp dried red chili flakes)
6 tbs extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp ground black pepper
Place the coriander and parsley leaves (plus stalks) into a processor along with the other ingredients.
Wizz for about twenty seconds. Taste and adjust the seasoning if required. Wizz again until you get a smooth paste or if you prefer some texture, leave out the second blitzing.
