  • Pinch of sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Add olive oil, red jalapeño and minced garlic into a small cold frying pan.
  • Set the heat to medium-low; once minced garlic becomes aromatic and lightly golden, add the coriander seeds and cumin. Give a quick stir and allow light toasting of the spices to bring out the aromas⏤1-2 minutes of cooking needed.

  • Once the cilantro is bright green, add the lemon juice and pinch of sea salt.

Notes

Tip! Mincing a whole head of garlic can be a tedious task. To speed up the process add the garlic to a mini food processor a give a couple of pulses until the garlic is minced.
