"Making this recipe is an absolute pleasure. The flavor works really well with fried fish, but it can be used as a general starter, or to be spread on toast for breakfast. The quantities below are for two servings, but I often multiply the amounts and refrigerate the resulted salad in a well-sealed container, so that I can use it repeatedly along the week. It's my go-to dip to accompany every meal."

Grate the garlic clove finely.

Finely dice the jalapeño and remember to remove the seeds.

In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients and season with salt.
Step 5/7
Whisk firmly while adding a thin stream of water. Keep whisking until you make it into a thick mixture that is similar to honey in density.

Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes so that the flavors meld. The more you let it, the stronger the taste.
