Title: Searching for the name or recipe from an unknown sauce/dip for Onion Bahji
Post by: Arnooos on July 08, 2016, 10:36 AM

Hi all,

Got a quick question.
I've eaten quite a lot of Onion Bahji's in restaurants overseas, and a lot of times I received a certain sauce/dip next to it and have yet to find the name of it or a recipe.

The liquid of the sauce is clear, oily like, not like yoghurt but really looking like clear yellowish oil.
Within it there where greenish leaves which I think was coriander or mint.
It's been about 2 years the last time I received it so my mind is a bit rusty, but can remember it tasted sweetish with an herbal and fresh flavor.

So to be honest I think it was something with (olive)oil, perhaps honey, and with a light fresh touch of mint and I think it was either coriander or perhaps even petersil, lemon grass maybe even all though it didn't look like lemon grass.

Many thanks for you input!

Although in the UK it's normally red and not yellow, I suspect that this search (http://tinyurl.com/CR0-red-sauce) will take you to some recipes that are very close.

Many thanks!
Does seem based on the ingredients on the pages what I was searching for.
Thought I did remember it to be more yellowish rather than red, but then again it's been about 2 years since I last ate it.
