About

Here’s a Caribbean version of a classic Italian sauce that is magic with a seafood barbecue or try it with grilled fish, chicken or vegetables.

Ingredients

small bunch of fresh coriander (75 g/2½ oz)
leaves from 5 sprigs<

Method

Remove the leaves from the coriander. Finely chop the stalks. Chop the coriander leaves with the tarragon and basil. Put into a bowl with the chopped coriander stalks.
Stir the other ingredients into the sauce, including enough olive oil to make a dropping but not too liquid sauce. Taste and adjust the flavours as you want.
