MAMA'S CILANTRO CREAM SAUCE
This is the sauce from my Reggae Wraps recipe. After several people asked me to post it separately I gave in. This sauce is great on just about anything but shoe leather! WONDERFUL on ASIAN cuisine, INDIAN dishes, just about anything that is grilled or spicy! Try this on tacos, burritos, grilled meats, seafood or veggies. Hope you enjoy it.

CILANTRO CREAM SAUCE
Our local television station here in Houston has a segment on Sundays that airs local restaurants and it's recipes. I have been waiting and waiting for this one! This Cilantro Cream Sauce is served over Chicken Enchiladas and they are to die for in my opinion. This cream sauce is absolutely evil :) It's a very very rich sauce and should be avoided by all dieters! I made this and poured it over some chicken enchiladas which came out great but now I'm thinking of a pasta dish and substituting the alfredo sauce with this one. The possiblities are endless with this recipe. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Tips:
- Fresh cilantro is essential for this sauce. If you can't find fresh cilantro, you can use 1/2 cup of dried cilantro, but the flavor will be less intense.
- Use a food processor or blender to make the sauce. This will help to create a smooth and creamy texture.
- If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can chop the cilantro and other ingredients by hand. Just be sure to chop them very finely.
- Taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lime juice to taste.
- This sauce is best served immediately. However, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
