I like the flavors in this but I don't think I added enough basil and parsley it was kinda oily. I will definately make again just will tweak it. made for ZWT4.

This was really good. Fresh tasting. Reminds me a lot of pesto, but a different texture and with bit of twang, with the vinegar and red chilies. This is also good tossed through a salad or roasted veggies too. Even on a potatoe chip. lol Very nice. Thank you for a quick, easy, tasty and very versitile condiment. One I'll make often, as long as I have fresh basil. ***Wonders if this can be frozen***
