Tips & Tricks
Use Fresh Ingredients: For best results, I recommend using fresh mint and garlic over the dried and jarred variety.
Chop Finely: The best way to bring out the freshest flavour from the mint is to chop it really finely or even better, use a food processor/blender and pulse until its broken down.
Adjust The Consistency: If you want to make the sauce a little thinner, add a couple of tablespoons of water and stir until the water is mixed in.
