Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh mint packed
- 1 cup fresh parsley packed
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 shallot
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients (except the olive oil) in a food processor and pulse until a paste forms (it's best to leave it a little chunky for texture).
- Place in a bowl and stir in the olive oil. Serve at room temperature.
Notes
- Process into a chunky paste for best results. You don't want it to be totally fine, but not overly chunky either - in between.
- Use good quality olive oil and red wine vinegar for the best results.
- Always use fresh herbs to make this recipe - dry will give you the same results.
- If you don't have a food processor, use a sharp knife to chop the ingredients finely.
