Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a food processor, pulse garlic a few times to mince; add parsley and cilantro and pulse to chop.
  2. Add 1/4 cup water and puree mixture (if it is not enough volume to puree you can add a tablespoon of water or a spoonful of the tahini paste).
  3. Place the tahini paste in a bowl and stir in the puree, 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1 tablespoon water; it should be thinner than mayonnaise, if not, add more lemon juice or water (depending on how tart you want it).
  4. Taste and add salt or more lemon juice; sprinkle with cayenne pepper if desired.
  5. NOTE: This sauce will thicken when refrigerated, so you may wish to stir in a little water to thin out.
