Every time we serve this lively fresh tomato salsa, it disappears in a flash! Excellent for when friends come round and you need to produce a quick snack or appetiser. It only takes a few minutes to make in your Thermomix and can be served as a dip for tortilla chips with some sour cream on the side. It’s also a wonderful addition to sauces and stews for extra flavour.
Ingredients:
- red onion 1 small, finely chopped
- sugar 1 tsp
- sea salt flakes 1 tsp
- lime juice 4 tbsp
- vine tomatoes 4 large
- fresh jalapeño chillies 3
- coriander a small bunch, chopped
- plain tortilla chips to serve
Method
Put the onion, sugar, salt and lime juice in a bowl and toss together. Heat a griddle pan
or BBQ to hot. Grill the tomatoes, turning until charred then drop into a bowl and cover. Do
the same with the chillies.
Remove as much of the skin as possible from the tomatoes and chillies and discard (don’t
worry if there’s a little left on). Roughly chop the tomatoes and finely chop the chillies,
discarding the stems. Add both to the onion bowl, toss and leave for at least 30 minutes for
all the flavours to meld. Your tomato salsa is ready. Serve with tortilla chips for scooping.
