Instructions

  1. For the tahini sauce, mix tahini and water in a small bowl until smooth. Press in one peeled garlic clove, add maple syrup and lemon juice, and mix well. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  2. For the mango sauce, peel the mango and blend the soft flesh in a tall container with a hand blender until creamy, adding a bit of water if needed. Add chili flakes to taste and stir. Set aside.
  3. For the Zhoug, first grind the 3 cloves and the contents of 5 cardamom pods in a mortar. Put this powder in a tall container that fits the hand blender, and add the following: cilantro leaves, parsley leaves, 4 tablespoons of cold water, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon of cumin, 1 jalapeno without the stem, and 2 peeled garlic cloves.
