Garlic and walnut sauce

---

This recipe is part of Gjellë me arra (Chicken with walnuts), but was so good that it deserves to be a recipe in its own right.

It would make a nice topping or accompaniment for most meats or vegetables.

Ingredients

• Extra virgin Olive oil
• 1.5 tablespoons plain flour
• 60 g butter
• 15 crushed shelled walnuts
• 6 fat cloves of Garlic, crushed
• 2 beaten egg yolks
• A few tablespoons of hot stock or hot water.

Method

1. Put the flour in a pan and dry-cook until it becomes light brown in colour.
2. In another pan, add the butter and sauté the garlic until lightly coloured.
3. Add the flour to the butter and mix well until combined.
4. Remove from the heat, stir in the walnuts and whisk in the egg yolks.
5. Add a little hot water or stock so the sauce loosens a little.
6. Finally add stir a few tablespoons of olive oil into the dip so it has a little glaze.
7. Enjoy!
