This vibrant sauce combines fresh cilantro and parsley with cumin, red pepper flakes, and lemon. In Moroccan cuisine, chermoula is traditionally used to marinate and serve with fish and grilled meats. Its spicy, fresh flavor adds depth to a meal.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Chop the Herbs

6 min

Finely chop the cilantro and parsley with a knife.

2

Mix with the Spices

3 min

Combine the chopped herbs, garlic, cumin, paprika, and Turkish red pepper flakes in a bowl.

3

Add the Liquids

3 min

Add the lemon juice and olive oil and mix well. Season with salt, then brush the sauce over fish or grilled meat, or serve it on the side.

Reminder

Allergen: In its basic form, this sauce contains no common allergens. Important: Chop the herbs very finely for a smoother sauce; coarsely chopped herbs can make it uneven. Caution: If using the sauce to marinate fish, limit the time to 30 minutes. The acidity of the lemon can change the fish’s texture if left longer.
