Ingredients

Method

1.

On a chopping board, roughly chop parsley, basil, chilli and garlic cloves. Place ingredients in a small bowl and mix together.

2.

Add the lime zest. On a chopping board, slice the finger lime and squeeze the pearl-like flesh into the bowl. Gently mix together.

3.

Dress with olive oil and lime juice. Season with salt and cracked black pepper, to taste.

“Tip: Marty uses Russian garlic, which has a mild flavour, perfect for salads. You’ll find Russian garlic at good grocers and some supermarkets.”
