Cooking steps
  • 1

    Grind walnuts with a blender. Grind garlic and onion. Chop greens with the blender as well. Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon into it. It's better to do this in stages and transfer the ground ingredients to a tall container, where they will be mixed and ground together again. Or grind everything at once in a meat grinder.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Walnuts: 65 g
    2. Garlic: 2 cloves
    3. Onion: 1 head
    4. Parsley: 0.5 bunch
    5. Cilantro: 0.5 bunch
    6. Lemon: 1 piece

    2. Ground black pepper:  to taste
    3. Fresh chili pepper: 0.3 piece

    The taste should be salty-sour and not very spicy. Add water to achieve a consistency close to thick sour cream and blend until smooth.
