Heat cumin, cardamom and cloves in a pan over a medium heat until fragrant.
Grind spices to a powder in a mortar. Add garlic and salt and continue to form a paste. Loosen with the water and pour into a small food processor bowl.
Add coriander, parsley, chiles, sugar and olive oil and blitz in a few pulses to get a coarse paste; make sure not to overmix.
Store in a sterilised jar in the fridge for up to 3 weeks.
