Yield: Serves 6

Ingredients:
  • 1/3 C Cashews
  • 1 fresh Jalapeno pepper minced
  • 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 Tablespoon fresh grated Ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground Coriander

Toast cashews on a baking sheet in a 350 degree oven until fragrant (approximately 5-7 minutes). Let cool. Place cashews in food processor and process until they form a rough paste. Add the next four ingredients and pulse several times until incorporated into the paste. Add the fresh herbs and 1/2 of the olive oil and process to make a rough paste again.
