This salsa verde, which balances a meal full of spiced dishes, would also complement anything from grilled steak to steamed vegetables.

  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped shallot
  • 1 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • 3/4 cup chopped mint
  • Whisk together oil, vinegar, water, garlic, shallot, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper until salt has dissolved. Whisk in herbs. Let stand 20 minutes for flavors to develop.
