Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by washing the fresh mint leaves thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or impurities. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

    Peel and Mince Garlic

    Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely using a knife or a garlic press.

Making the Sauce

    Blend the Sauce

    In a blender or food processor, combine the washed mint leaves, minced garlic, lime juice, and honey or agave syrup. Blend until the mixture is smooth.

  2. 4

    Incorporate Olive Oil

    While the blender is running, slowly stream in the olive oil until fully incorporated and the sauce is creamy.

  3. 5

    Season the Sauce

    Add salt and black pepper to the mixture, and blend again briefly to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Serving
