Bocaditos Charred Tomato Mint Salsa Recipe

Mexican Vegetable Recipes

Ingredients:

3 Roma (plum) tomatoes, pan charred
1 slice white onion, thick, pan roasted
1 medium garlic clove
2 serrano chilies with seeds, roughly chopped
12 fresh cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped
3 large fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
1/4 tsp cumin seed, toast and grind
1/4 cup water
1/8 tsp kosher salt

Instructions:

PAN ROAST: begin by blistering the tomatoes on a cast-iron skillet
(comal)
then pan-roasting with onion slice and garlic to develop the sweeter
flavors. Roast until deeply browned and soft. Next "toast" the cumin
seeds over medium heat.

Chop together with a knife or food processor the tomatoes, onion, garlic
until you have a coarsely textured salsa. Add the chilies, cilantro, mint,
cumin, water and salt. Process briefly to mix; salsa should be chunky.
Keeps tightly covered up to 2 days in the refrigerator. About 1 cup.

This recipe is certainly silly. It says to separate two eggs, but it doesn't say how far to separate them. Gracie Allen
