Creamy Jalapeño Sauce

This vibrant creamy jalapeño sauce is a versatile addition to any vegan repertoire, offering a bright punch of heat balanced by zesty lime and fresh herbs. Unlike dairy-based condiments, this recipe achieves its luxurious, velvety texture through a simple emulsion of neutral oil and fresh aromatics. The result is a beautifully green, pourable sauce that brings an immediate lift to roasted vegetables, grain bowls, or homemade tacos.

Quick to prepare and naturally gluten-free, this savoury dressing is an excellent make-ahead option for busy weeknights or weekend barbecues. The heat levels are easily adjusted to suit your palate by varying the amount of chilli used. For the best flavour, serve it alongside smoky grilled sweet potato or use it as a bold dip for crunchy crudités.
