Wash the kaffir lime leaves, use 4 whole and roll up 2 diagonally, cut the rolls diagonally into thin threads and cut them diagonally into very small pieces.
- Put the peppers, the garlic and half of the orange juice in a small blender beaker and coarsely puree for 30 seconds on the lowest setting.
