Craving a little spice in your life? Cha, cha, cha! How about some fresh easy to make salsa? Great by itself on tortilla chips, as a topping on any Mexican food dish, or a tasty condiment for any meal that you want to spice up a notch.
Ingredients depend on how much you are making, but this recipe probably made a good few cups.
3-4 Roma tomatoes
1/2-1 small red onion
1-2 cloves of garlic
Juice of 2-4 limes
1-2 jalapenos. Leave the seeds in for an extra BOOST of flavor!
Cilantro, about half a bunch
Sea salt, black pepper, cumin to your taste
Ideally, toss all of the above ingredients into a food processor or blender, hit the puree or mix button...and there you go! If you are using a food processor, the vegetables need not be finely chopped. You can blend to your preferred consistency. For a more "fresca" salsa, finely dice/chop the above ingredients and mix in a bowl.
Salsa is great right away, but even better if the flavors blend. Cover the bowl and let sit in the fridge for an hour or two for optimal flavor. Salsa should be good for up to a week.
Arriba, arriba!
Enjoy!
