Mojo Verde Sauce (with Coriander/Cilantro and Sherry vinegar)

One of three Mojo sauces on HBA.  This is the green one (Verde).  It's fresh and delicious.

Great with fish, pork, potatoes or steamed greens.

Check out Mojo Rojo (Red) for the spicy one.  It rocks!

Check out Mojo Hervido (Boiled) for another classic.

Ingredients

½ teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted
6 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 cups chopped coriander (cilantro)
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons sherry-wine vinegar
2 teaspoons water

Instructions

With a mortar & pestle, grind up the cumin seeds first, then each of the dry ingredients one by one.  Slowly mix in the olive oil until you have a paste. Then mix with the vinegar and water to emulsify.  It's effectively a thick garlic & coriander dressing. Great stuff!
