Habanero Tartar Sauce recipe from Pati’s Mexican Table Season 8, Episode 10 “Surfside Eats"
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 packed tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh mint leaves
- 2 packed tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh cilantro, leaves and upper stems
- 3 scallions, tops removed, white and light green parts thinly sliced
- 1 habanero chile, seeded and finely chopped (about 1 tablespoon)
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice, more to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher or coarse sea salt, or to taste
To Prepare
- Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
I was wondering if you have ever used non-fat greek yogurt in place of mayo?
Never Cheri, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. The consistency would be more like a Greek Tzatziki or a Persian Maast-o Khiar, but equally delicious. Enjoy!
I noticed the habanero came from a jar with liquid. Do you pickle the habanero in something, or just keep them in water until ready for use?
For this recipe I used store bought pickled habaneros Andrew, but you can pickle your own as well and they last for a long time!
Can this be made with a less hotter pepper like a poblano or jalapeno ?
Absolutely!
Most excellent!! Thank you.
Thank YOU J.!
