Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 medium size vine ripened tomatoes (stem removed)
2 jalapeno peppers
1 poblano pepper
1 cup green onion (diced)
1 lime (juice of)
1 cup canned diced tomatoes
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tbsp chicken bouillon powder or sea salt

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet to medium high heat. Place tomatoes and peppers in the skillet.
  • Continue to saute, rotating the vegetables occasionally, so several sides begin to blister. See photos above. This will take around 20 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Once cooled, chop off the stems of the peppers, and remove the seeds from the jalapeño (you can also keep some seeds for more heat in your salsa). Cut the vegetables into large pieces.
  • Place tomatoes, peppers, onions, lime, and canned tomatoes into a blender and pulse quickly until just mixed (about 5 seconds). Add garlic, cilantro, and bouillon. Pulse for another 15 seconds until well blended but chunky.
  • Place in a large bowl and refrigerate until cooled before serving. Serve with your favorite Mexican dish or with chips.

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds tomatoes (vine-ripe, roma or heirloom), cored and quartered -- I like Roma best for texture

2 jalapeños (with seeds If you like heat!), diced
1 heaping handful of cilantro (about 1/2 cup)
Half a lime, juiced
Pinch of cumin
Pinch of sugar
Salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor and pulse until it gets to the desired consistency; you can make it chunky or smooth! I like a little bit of texture so I go with slightly chunky. Add salt to taste. Chill salsa for 1-2 hours or overnight to let flavors come together. Serve with chips, on nachos, on chili, or anything you like!

EASY COOKED SALSA



Easy Cooked Salsa image

I've experimented with a lot of salsa recipes and this is, by far, my favourite. It doesn't take too long to make (especially if you have a food processor to do the chopping) and is just right for spice -- a little kick but not so much that your tongue falls off!

Categories     Sauces

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon olive oil
6 jalapenos, chopped
2 sweet peppers, chopped
8 -10 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup onion, chopped
9 cups seeded and chopped tomatoes (about 40 whole, small, tomatoes)
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
4 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat the oil and add the jalapenos, sweet peppers, garlic and onion.
  • Sauté until everything is soft but not browned.
  • Add the tomatoes and cook until the tomatoes are quite soft and starting to pack down in the pot, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and cook for about 10 minutes more to give the flavours a chance to mix together and the water to boil off.
  • When the salsa is as thick as you like it, add salt to taste if needed and let stand for at least one minute.
  • Stir well before serving.
