Cilantro Pesto - Rahk Pahk Chee-Gratiem-Prik Thai

Recipe Ingredients

1 teaspoon	5ml	Whole white or black
1		Peppercorns
2 tablespoons	30ml	Coarsely chopped fresh
1		Cilantro roots or leaves
1		And stems
2 tablespoons	30ml	Coarsely chopped garlic

Recipe Instructions

Using a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder, crush or grind the peppercorns to a fine powder.

Combine the pepper, cilantro roots and garlic. Work the three ingredients into a fairly smooth paste in the mortar or in a small blender or food processor. If you use a blender or food processor, you may need to add a little vegetable oil or water to ease the grinding.

Make about 1/4 cup. For an industrial strength batch use 1 tbs peppercorns, 1/2 cup cilantro roots and 1/2 cup garlic.

To store the pesto for later use, put in a glass jar, pour a little oil onto the surface to cover it and seal tightly.

It will keep nicely for about 1 week in the refrigerator.
