Simple Recipe Box

Welcome back to the Simple Recipe Box podcast, where we dive into the joy of home cooking! I’m your host, Ben Harper, and today we’re unlocking the secret to a game-changing sauce that’ll instantly elevate your meals - the vibrant Mojo Sauce!

Now, imagine drizzling a sauce so packed with fresh herbs and spices over your tacos or using it as a marinade that transforms your dishes in a snap. That’s what Mojo Sauce does! It’s quick to make and incredibly versatile, perfect for any home cook, whether you’re a seasoned chef or just starting out.

Let’s start with what you’ll need. Grab your blender because this is going to be a smooth ride!

Here’s your shopping list:

• 2 cups of fresh cilantro leaves
• 1 cup of fresh parsley leaves
• 1/2 cup of olive oil
• 1/4 cup of lime juice
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon of cumin
• 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
• A splash of water, about 1/4 cup, to get the right consistency

These ingredients are not just easy to find but also promise a burst of flavor. The cilantro and parsley give that fresh, zesty base, while the olive oil brings everything together into a silky blend.

Let’s get into the making:

1. Start by washing your cilantro and parsley. Make sure they’re well-dried to keep the sauce vibrant and not watery.
2. Next, mince your garlic finely to ensure it blends smoothly.
3. Now, toss the cilantro, parsley, olive oil, lime juice, garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper into your blender. Blend until smooth. If it’s too thick, add that splash of water and blend again.

Voila! Your Mojo Sauce is ready to jazz up your meals. It’s perfect for grilling, as a dip, or even as a vibrant dressing for salads.

Now, let’s talk storage. Pour your sauce into an airtight container and it’ll keep in the fridge for up to two weeks. You can even freeze it in ice cube trays for easy, future use.

Before I wrap up, here’s a pro tip: Always taste as you blend. Adjust the seasonings to your liking. More lime juice for tanginess or a pinch more paprika for heat.

And there you have it, folks! A simple, delicious Mojo Sauce that’ll make your taste buds dance. Give it a try and watch your regular dishes transform into something extraordinary. Thanks for tuning in, and remember, good food is all about simple ingredients and a lot of love. Happy cooking!
