Sharma also has a website A Brown Table, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.abrowntable.com\/\">http:\/\/www.abrowntable.com\/<\/a>, and a blog at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.abrowntable.com\/home\">http:\/\/www.abrowntable.com\/home<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We came into a great deal of cut basil from a friend who was going to be away from home for several days and had lots of basil in her garden getting ready flower.\u00c2\u00a0 We were in a similar situation a few years back and took advice from some online source to cut the basil back severely and give it away. The cut basil grows back in time in a relatively short time, ready for you to enjoy when you return form your trip.<\/p>\n<p>Basil yogurt sauce uses a cup of leaves and is delicious as an accompaniment to vegetables, on eggs,\u00c2\u00a0 or as a dip. In his cookbook, Sharma uses this with sweet potato fries, The recipe that follows is as I made it.<\/p>\n<p>Ingredients:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1\/4 cup full fat organic yogurt<\/li>\n<li>1 cup fresh basil leaves<\/li>\n<li>1 shallot<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 ripe avocado<\/li>\n<li>juice of 1\/2 lime<\/li>\n<li>4 black peppercorns<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon fine sea salt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Method:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Combine all ingredients in a food processor and combine until smooth. You can add a little bit of water to thin the sauce.\u00c2\u00a0 If you plan ahead, which I didn&#8217;t do this morning, refrigerate for a couple of hours before use.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This recipe for basil yogurt sauce is from &#8220;Season Big Flavors, Beautiful Food&#8221; by Nik Sharma, a beautiful book with great recipes.
