Salsa simply means ‘sauce’, and this is by far the most famous of them. Made with fresh, refreshing ingredients, this is great served with nacho chips as a starter, and is an equally versatile accompaniment to meat or fish main courses.

Ingredients

  • 4 large tomotoes, finely chopped
  • 1 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 clove of garlic, crushed
  • 1/2 green pepper, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp chopped Discovery Green Jalapenos
  • 2 tbsp chopped coriander
  • 3 tbsp fresh limed juice
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

1. Place the tomatoes, onion, garlic, green pepper and chilli in a large bowl and mix together well.

2. Add the chopped coriander and fresh lime juice, then season with salt and pepper according to taste, mixing thoroughly again to ensure all the flavours blend together.

3. Serve immediately, or alternatively place in an airtight container and transfer to the fridge – the taste will not be impaired and you’ll have a delicious salsa for snacking on at any time of day.

Serves 4-6 as a side-dish
