Tomato Salsa

Teh ultimate tomato salsa.

Recipe:

Start with roasting the cherry tomatoes and onion. Peel the onion and quarter it. Place the onion and tomatoes in a roasting dish, prick the skin of the tomatoes and drizzle some olive oil over the vegetables. Roast for 20min at 180’C or until they are a little charred.

In the meantime, peel and crush the garlic cloves, remove the stems from the chillies and cut into chunks. Quarter the large tomatoes.

In a food processor, add the roasted vegetables, garlic cloves, quartered tomatoes, chillies, extra virgin olive oil, lime juice, salt, pepper and cumin. Add ¾ of the fresh coriander and then pulse a few times until mostly blended. The salsa should be slightly chunky and not too fine.

Taste and add more lime juice if needed. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with the remaining fresh coriander. Serve straight away or over with cling film and leave in the fridge until needed.

Chefs Tip

The favours will develop further if the salsa is kept in the fridge for a few hours.
