Cottage Cheese Chimichurri

No ratings yet

Parsley, garlic and red wine vinegar over a cottage cheese base, which carries the herbs without the half cup of oil a classic chimichurri needs. Built for steak, but it does not stop there.

Ingredients

cottage cheese
  • 4 ozcottage cheese
  • 7 tbspfresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 clovegarlic
  • 2 tbspred wine vinegar
  • 2 tbspolive oil
  • 1/4 tspred chili flakes
  • a pinchsalt

Steps

  1. 1

    Blend the cottage cheese on its own until smooth. Chimichurri is a loose sauce and visible curds fight that.

  2. 2

    Chop the parsley fine by hand rather than blending it. A blender bruises parsley and turns the sauce a dull army green.

  3. 3

    Stir the parsley, grated garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil and chili flakes into the cottage cheese.

  4. 4

    Season with salt and leave it 20 minutes. The vinegar needs that long to stop tasting sharp.
