Make this simple yet so freakin delicious sauce in a flash.. Really in 30-40 minutes being careful not to burn it. This mojo is amazing to put on cooked Roast Pork, Beans, Cuban Sandwich, Tostones and so much more. You can incorporate this with the Freakin Rican Sofrito.

Ingredients

• 2-3 cups Canola oil
• 1 large lemon
• 1 cup fresh garlic, minced
• ½ tsp salt (or a little more)

Directions

• Pulse the garlic in a chopper to mince it. Put minced garlic into a medium pot. Add the oil and the juice of a whole large lemon into the pot.
• Put the pot on a back burner (a good idea when cooking oil) and turn the flame on low. Add the salt.
• Cook for about 15 minutes. Then check how the garlic looks. At this point you wantto see the garlic turning a little light green.
• Now lower the flame so that it almost goes out, and cook for another 15 minutes or so, and then check again. Keep an eye on it because you don’t want to burn the garlic!
• When it is done, the garlic will be a nice golden brown, but not burned. The total cooking time should be between 30 – 40 minutes.
• Now, spoon the garlic into a jar and pour the oil into the jar over the sink. Store it in the refrigerator.
• It is best to heat the Mojo Sauce when you use it.

Enjoy!
