Serve with boiled or fried fish, fried aubergines (eggplant) or zucchini (green squash) and with beetroot salad. Serves 6.
With Nuts: Pound with the garlic 1/2 cup blanched and ground almonds or walnuts.
Blender garlic Sauce: In an electric blender, put 3 to 4 cloves of garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 or 3 tablespoons wine vinegar, 1 cup soft breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup water and 5 tablespoons olive oil. Blend until garlic sauce is smooth. If the garlic sauce is thin, add 1 or 2 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs. |
