This has ingredients in it that I always have on hand, so it is easy to throw together. I used it on Recipe #377030. Thanks for sharing!

This is an easy paste to whip together and it adds interest to the dish where it is used. We brought it along on a camping trip and used it on vegetables cooked kebab style over the fire pit. Delish. Made for 'went to the market'
