Chef's notes

If you do not wish to make your own mojo verde, it is available in bottles from Delicioso.co.uk, but make sure you buy the picante version. If you can only get the mild version, add some green chillies to taste. We made this with 150 ml mojo verde but felt that 300 ml would have been better.
