Mint Chimichurri

Mar 03, 2022

This minty chimichurri pairs well with any meat but we love it with our BBQ Lamb.

Ingredients

  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1 red onion 
  • Fresh coriander
  • A chilli
  • Red wine vinegar
  • Rapeseed oil 
  • A lime
  • Maple syrup
  • Fresh mint
  • A generous pinch of salt and pepper


Instructions:

  • First you’ll need to remove the skin from the garlic, then you can begin chopping the garlic.
  • Once your garlic is well chopped add a little bit of salt and some rapeseed oil. Now start pressing down on the garlic with the side of your knife to create a smooth paste. (see video)
  • Scrape your garlic paste off of the board and place into a small bowl.
  • Finely dice an onion then add into the same bowl.
  • Start chopping your fresh coriander then also add that into the bowl.
  • Now you’ll want to start chopping the mint but before this make sure you remove all the woody bits from the mint. Then add the chopped mint into the bowl
  • Finely chop a chilli, you can leave the seeds in if you want a bit more of a kick. Then add the chilli into the bowl.
  • Now into the bowl add some red wine vinegar, rapeseed oil, a big pinch of salt and pepper, juice of a lime and a big glug of maple syrup, and mix well.
  • If you want a smooth paste instead you can put this mixture through a blender but we think it's best with a bit of texture.
