Azerbaijan's sour plum sauce, alcha, comes together in minutes by blending ripe red plums with garlic and mint. It travels well in a lunchbox and can also be spread on bread at a brunch table, an all-purpose sauce.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the plums

3 min

Pit the plums and place them, skin on, in a food processor.

2

Blend

5 min

Add the garlic cloves, mint, salt, pepper flakes and water, then blend until smooth.

3

Adjust and serve

3 min

If the consistency is too thick, stir in another tablespoon of water, then transfer to a serving bowl and serve right away.

Reminder

If the plums aren't sour enough, the sauce tastes flat; choosing ripe but still tart red plums makes all the difference.
