This unique dressing tastes bright, fresh, and earthy. Filled with bold flavors, it’s acidic, slightly sweet, herby, and ultimately delicious and satisfying.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup - olive oil
  • ¼ cup - fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons - apple cider vinegar
  • 1 ½ cups - cilantro
  • 2 teaspoons - curry powder
  • 1 tbsp - honey or maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons - spicy brown mustard
  • a pinch of salt
  • ½ tsp - black pepper

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients to a food processor or blender (or use a handheld stick/immersion blender) and combine until smooth.
  2. Adjust seasoning to taste, depending on your preference.
  3. This recipe makes about 1 ⅓ cup of dressing. It can be stored in the fridge for about a week.
  4. If dressing is too tart, add more honey and/or olive oil. If it’s too oily, add more lime or vinegar. If the mixture isn’t combining well or seems separated, add a bit more mustard since it acts as an emulsifier and will help bring the dressing together.
