Have you tried Chimichurri Sauce?

Kyung is a local sauce maker for Asado sauce and she is making sauces inspired by childhood flavour memories of Argentina, Korea and California. Asado produce each sauce in small batches according to the family recipe.

As Kyung explains "Our 1st collection is a herby Chimichurri sauce inspired by my childhood flavours while growing up in Argentina. The Asado Chimichurri Sauce is not your common oil based sauce, but a vinegar herby sauce with a hint of chili. You can use it as a condiment by applying the sauce directly on top of Steaks, Fish & Chips, Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, Pizza, Rice Pilaf or anything you fancy. We tried it on veggie tempura the other night and it absolutely transformed the dish into a herby, smoky & robust tempura, much loved by our family and friends. It’s very versatile to use, easy to pour, flavourful, and low in sugar!"

As an introduction, we have added a healthy vegetarian turmeric rice pilaf recipe we invite you to try. It’s a simple recipe with stir fried courgettes & vegetables on a bed of turmeric rice and drizzled with Asado Chimichurri Sauce.
