Place cilantro, chile, lime juice, and sugar in a blender and puree until smooth, add a tablespoonful or so of water if needed to get it going.
Step 2
Season with salt and add more lime juice if needed.
Note: Since the recipe calls for so little liquid it is best to blend the sauce in a food processor. If you don’t have a food processor simply finely chop the cilantro and chilis and mix with the lime and sugar until dissolved.
