Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 Roma tomatoes
- 1 small Red onion
- 1 Jalapeño pepper
- 0.5 cup Cilantro leaves
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 Lime
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash all vegetables thoroughly and pat them dry.
Dice the Roma tomatoes into small, even-sized pieces and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Finely dice the small red onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Chop the jalapeño pepper, removing the seeds and membrane for less heat (if desired), and add it to the mixture.
Mince the garlic cloves and roughly chop the cilantro leaves; stir them into the bowl.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze its juice over the salsa mixture, ensuring no seeds get in.
Sprinkle in the ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir all the ingredients together until well combined.
Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt, lime juice, or jalapeño for preferred flavor.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days to allow flavors to meld.
