Mojo is a sauce that originated from the Canary Islands. They have two types of mojo, depending on what's available during the season, a red (mojo rojo) and a green (mojo verde) one. They are normally eaten with crinkled potatoes, bread or meat dishes. I love the red mojo with potatoes and bread. As I have got family in the Canary Islands, I learnt this recipe from my sister in law. My sister in law sometimes add a spoon or two of bread crumbs into it to get a thicker consistency.

Apart from the olive oil, put all the remaining ingredients into a blender and blend into a fine paste. Pour the paste into a mixing bowl and pour the olive oil till you get a drizzling consistency of the sauce. Mix well and transfer into an airtight jar. It will store in the fridge for a week.
