How to Make Cuban Garlic Sauce
- Crush 8 cloves garlic and 1 teaspoon salt in a mortar and pestle or food processor until a smooth paste forms.
- In a medium bowl, combine the garlic paste, 1/2 cup finely chopped white onion, 1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic mixture and cook, stirring frequently, for 3-5 minutes, or until fragrant and slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly before using. This sauce can be used immediately or stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat gently before serving.
