This Mexican-style salsa, made from tomato, onion and fresh coriander, is a refreshing sauce prepared without any cooking at all. It is enjoyed alongside nachos, tacos and grilled dishes, both as a sauce and as an appetizer.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Chop the vegetables

10 min

Cut the tomatoes into small cubes and remove the seeds as much as possible; this step prevents the salsa from releasing its liquid too soon.

2

Combine the ingredients

3 min

Combine the chopped onion, pepper, and cilantro with the tomatoes in a bowl, and drizzle with lemon juice.

3

Salt and rest

10 min

After adding the salt and mixing, let the salsa rest for 10 minutes before serving so the flavors meld.

Reminder

Allergen: in its basic form this salsa doesn't contain common allergens. Important: if you prepare the salsa too far ahead of serving, the tomatoes can release their juice and make it watery, so eat it the same day if possible. Caution: if using chili peppers, removing the seeds can help balance the heat.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Removing the seeds while chopping the tomatoes prevents the salsa from releasing water too early and thus becoming watery and losing flavor; this small detail noticeably improves the texture.

Annemin yıllardır yaptığı tarife çok benziyor, nostaljik oldu. Kızım da yardım etti, birlikte yapmak keyifliydi.

Ocak ayarını orta-kısıkta tutunca yanma olmadı.
