Instructions
- Add all the ingredients with the exception of the grated lemon rind and lemon juice to your food processor. Blend into a sauce. How smooth or chunky the sauce should be will totally depend on your preference.
- Allow a small saucepan to heat under medium heat. Add the blended peri peri sauce and allow it to reduce.
- Once done, remove the saucepan from the heat and set it aside to cool. Stir in the lemon juice and grated lemon zest. Use your peri peri sauce or keep it in sterilised jars or bottles in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
- How smooth or chunky the sauce should be will totally depend on your preference.
- To make sure the peri peri sauce retains its tangy-sweet flavor and to prevent it from developing a bitter taste, avoid using aged parsley or rosemary leaves.
- Use more or less of the chili peppers, depending on how spicy you like your peri peri sauce.
