Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 whole lime (juiced)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup good-quality mayonnaise ((such as Hellmann's) )
3 ounces queso fresco or blanco
2 serrano peppers (ends trimmed )
1 bunch cilantro (with the leaves removed and stems discarded*)
4 garlic cloves (peeled )
2 green onions ( ends trimmed and roughly chopped)
2 teaspoons huacatay paste ((optional))
1 tablespoon aji amarillo paste ((optional))
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

To a blender, add the lime juice, olive oil, cheese, mayonnaise, serrano peppers, cilantro leaves, garlic cloves, green onions, huacatay paste, aji amarillo and salt. Blend for about 1 to 2 minutes, until very smooth. At first the cilantro leaves won't be totally smooth, but keep the blender running and it will eventually become cohesive and smooth.
Give it a taste and adjust the salt according to your liking. Keeps in the fridge for up to a week.

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 cups lightly packed fresh cilantro, mostly leaves but small stems are ok (from 1 big bunch of cilantro or 1 1/2 medium)
2 medium jalapeños, seeds and membranes removed but reserved, roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1/3 cup (1 ounce) grated Cotija or Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Steps:

In a food processor or blender, combine all of the ingredients. Blend until the cilantro has broken into very tiny pieces and the sauce is green and mostly smooth (no matter how long you blend it, it will still have some texture to it).
Taste, and adjust if necessary. This sauce is intentionally bold and spicy and I usually think it's just right as written. However, if the flavor is too overwhelming, blend in 1 tablespoon of olive oil while running the food processor. If it's not spicy enough, add some of the reserved jalapeño seeds and blend again. If it doesn't have enough zip, add another tablespoon of lime juice and/or a pinch of salt.
Aji verde keeps well in the refrigerator, covered, for about 1 week.
