Salsa fresca/pico de gallo
1 batch
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 6 | Roma tomatoes or regular tomatoes, seeded, and chopped | |
| 4 | Green onions, chopped | |
| Juice of two limes | ||
| 3 | Jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped or | |
| 2 | Seranno chili peppers | |
| 1 | cup | Cilantro leaves, coarsly chopped (opt'l) |
| 2 | tablespoons | Bland salad oil (opt'l) |
Directions
Combine the ingredients, and allow to sit for an hour or so to blend the flavors.
All of the ingredients in this dish can be freely varied to suit the individual cook's taste. Some cooks also include a small, firm but ripe avocado, cubed.
The mixture will keep under refrigeration for about a day, but I wouldn't hold it much longer than that, and it's really best when freshly made.
