Ingredients
Preparation
First, wash the flat-leaf parsley and oregano thoroughly, pat them dry, and chop them very finely – ensure they are nice and small so the flavors can develop well later.
Now peel the garlic clove and either cut it into paper-thin slices or chop it very finely as well.
Place the herbs and garlic into a small bowl and add the olive oil and red wine vinegar.
Now add the chili flakes, salt, and black pepper – stir vigorously, and it's ready!
Ideally, let the sauce rest for at least 30 minutes so the oil can absorb the full flavor of the herbs before serving.
