Categories     Sauce     Vegetable     Vegetarian

Number Of Ingredients 5

2-3 fresh chiles (habañero, serrano, or jalapeño) seeded and chopped
1 red onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, pressed or minced
1/2 c fresh lemon or lime juice
1/2 tsp salt

Steps:

  • In a blender or food processor, combine all the ingredients and puree just until a coarse sauce is produced. If using a blender, you may have to scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula. To prepare by hand, mince the chiles, onions, and garlic and mix in the lemon juice and salt. Let the flavors meld for at least an hour at room temperature or for 3 hours refrigerated.
