Ingredients
- 1 pinch 4 fresh mint leaves
- 4 whole anchovy fillets
- 2 oz. of finely ground almonds
- 2 oz. of olive oil
- 3 ozs water
- 1 pinch salt to taste
- 1 drop lemon juice
Instructions
- Pound 4 fresh mint leaves to a paste, then add 4 anchovy fillets. Have ready 2 oz. of finely ground almonds, about 2 oz. of olive oil, and half a coffee-cup (after-dinner size) of water. Stir in these three ingredients alternately, a little of each at a time, until all are used up. The result should be a thick mass, in consistency something like a very solid mayonnaise. Season with a little salt if necessary, and a drop of lemon juice.
