Instructions
Heat a small frying pan on medium heat and dry fry the cumin for 2-3 minutes until aromatic.
Place in a spice mill or coffee mill and ground to a powder.
Now let's make the sauce. Place the garlic, salt and chillies in a chopper and chop until coarse.
Chop the coriander leaves next. If your chopper isn't big enough, do this in 2 batches, then mix everything up in a bowl.
Mix in the cumin.
Add the olive oil, lemon juice and water and mix (either still in the chopper or with a spoon in a bowl).
Place in a
container, top with more olive oil and it should keep in the fridge for a couple of weeks.
