Roasted Tomato Lime Salsa Recipe

This salsa comes out so fresh tasting — and hot! You can cut back to just one pepper if you like it milder, or use 1 jalapeno and 1 serrano if you like the heat.

• 6 roma tomatoes
• 2 jalapenos, cut in half lengthwise and seeded
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 2 peeled garlic cloves
• 3/4 cup chopped cilantro
• 1 teaspoon salt
• fresh ground pepper

1. Soak the finely chopped onion in the lime juice for 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, put the jalapenos, garlic cloves and tomatoes in a pan and char on all sides.
3. Put the charred items in a blender and puree until blended but still a bit chunky. Add the onion (with lime juice), cilantro, salt and pepper and blend just until all ingredients are mixed together.
4. Chill for half an hour (will be hot) or put in the freezer for 10 minutes if you want to eat it sooner.
5. Will keep for about a week in an airtight container.
