Spring salsa verde
by Sarah Raven
Spring salsa verde
A herb dressing that is wonderful with globe artichokes, chicken, fish, beef or lamb.
For 8-10:
- 1 large bunch flat-leaf parsley
- 1 large bunch mixed herbs (chives, fennel, chervil, coriander and just one or two leaves of lovage or Winter savory)
- 4 gherkins, rinsed
- 20-30 small capers, rinsed
- 250ml olive oil
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- Salt and black pepper
Chop the herbs coarsely.
Add the gherkins and capers with the olive oil and lemon juice.
Blitz only briefly, or chop by hand, so that you have a coarse-textured sauce.
Season to taste.
