Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 green jalapeño peppers roasted and seeded
  • 2/3 cup mayonnaise* I’ve used Hellmanns mayonnaise
  • 1/2 tsp of garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp of Pimenton smoked pepper powder
  • 1/8 tsp of crushed coriander seeds roast them before
  • pinch of cumin seeds (also roasted) also roasted
  • juice of half a lemon
  • salt to taste
  • fresh coriander (optional) optional
  • You can make this recipe vegan by substituting the mayonnaise for a vegan brand.

Instructions

  • Roast the jalapeños one at a time (by holding them with a skewer over the flame) on your stove-top until the skin get charred and blistered. Do not let the jalapeño catch fire. When all the sides are blackened, place them in a Ziplock bag and let them steam for a few minutes. After they’ve steamed remove the blackened skin and seeds.
  • Blend mayonnaise, roasted jalapeños, garlic powder, Pimento, crushed coriander seeds, cumin seeds and lemon juice together in a blender or food processor until smooth.
  • Taste the sauce and add salt. At this point you can also add more lemon juice if you like a tangy sauce or add some fresh coriander leaves and blend again.
