Recipe by Zurie

A simple basting sauce for summer barbecues. Make ahead; mixture should stand several hours or overnight. Good on steaks, chicken or lamb chops. Please adjust sauce to your taste: I found it hard to measure quantities I usually just throw into a mixing bowl ...!

DIRECTIONS

Measure mint leaves loosely: I am not sure how much I use. Chop them very finely.
Mix all the ingredients and whisk well.
Pour into a glass or ceramic jug, or into a canning bottle, cover, and let stand for several hours or overnight.
Whisk again before use. Brush over chops, steaks or chicken while grilling.
