Dash red wine vinegar
1 x Tablespoon Dejon mustard
1/2 x Teaspoon black pepper
1/2 x Teaspoon lemon zest - the lemon combination is important
1 x Teaspoon lemon juice - the lemon combination is important
Salt not really needed - the anchovies and capers will provide more than enough salt
Place the parsley, mint, capers, garlic, anchovies, vinegar, pepper and mustard in a bowl and blend together. Next, slowly add the olive oil to achieve your desired runniness then add the lemon zest and lemon juice and stir to bring everything togther. Refrigerate and allow to sit for 15 - 20 minutes before using

Comments: It is important to note that the mustard is important as an emulsifier - it also adds lovely flavour. A nice partner !
