-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup cilantro leaves
2 cloves garlic
2 fresh serrano chiles
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 piece fresh ginger root -- 1-inch long
1 lime -- Grated peel and juice of 1 lime
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Using a food processor, puree 1 cup cilantro leaves, 2 cloves garlic, 2 serrano chiles, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, one 1-inch piece fresh ginger, the grated peel and juice of 1 lime and 1 tablespoon each fish sauce and soy sauce.

Makes about 1 1/4 cups (approx 20 one-tablespoon servings)

ChupaNote: make this up and put 2 tablespoons each in ice cube tray compartments. Use as you would a mirepoix in European cooking; as a base for stir-fries, soup, stews and as a topping for rice and grain pilafs. Very versatile.
