Notes

  • Use your favorite herbs here, but classically chemroula sauce is made with parsley and cilantro. I have made it using parsley and oregano and mint as well and it was delicious for those who don't like cilantro as much.
  • When it comes to stems, since the sauce will be blended, don't skimp on adding the stems to the food processor as they have so much flavor!
  • Feel free to up the garlic a bit if you're looking for a garlicky sauce, I find this to be well balanced.
  • Similarly, feel free to adjust heat by adding more or less chillies and chilli flakes. 
  • If not using the chermoula recipe within 2 days, it's best to freeze it. Use the same guide in freezing as we do with our Basil Pesto.
  • Oh yes! Chermoula sauce is super healthy specially when you make it with quality Moroccan Olive Oil like Mina because it's single sourced and loaded with more polyphenols than others. This sauce is also gluten free, vegan, keto friendly and dairy free so it's suitable for most diets.
  • If you've tried our Chimichurri Recipe you may find a similar bright taste of herbs and a similar texture. However This Moroccan goodness has a richer smokey taste thanks to the cumin and coriander. And it's also made with more lemon so it's slightly tangier.
  • While you can stretch this wonderful recipe to last you 14 days int he fridge, I highly recommend freezing it using the same way we freeze Basil Pesto. Ideally I love making and using chermoula recipe within 2 days.
