It goes well with beef too. So here it goes. Fiery Cilantro and Chile Dressing 1/3 cup Cilantro leaves 2-3 TB Fresh Chile peppers (I prefer serranos) 2 TB Fresh Red Pepper (for color) 4 cloves Garlic (roasted if you have it) 2 TB Brown sugar 1-2 TB Fish Sauce (available in most large grocery stores or Asian Markets) 1/2 cup Lime or lemon juice (which ever you prefer) 1/4tsp White pepper 1/4tsp Cracked black pepper Combine all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend well. If you don't have either of these machines then you'll simply need to chop the ingredients very fine and combine in a mixing bowl. I use this on vegetable and grilled meat salads. Enjoy!
