Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium ripe tomatoes
- 0.5 cup chopped red onion
- 1 medium jalapeno pepper
- 0.5 cup chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 clove minced garlic
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon cumin
Instructions
Wash the ripe tomatoes thoroughly, then core and dice them into small pieces. Place the diced tomatoes in a large mixing bowl.
Chop the red onion finely to make about 1/2 cup and add it to the tomatoes in the bowl.
Slice the jalapeno pepper in half lengthwise, remove the seeds and membrane for less heat, and finely dice the pepper. Add it to the mixture in the bowl.
Chop the cilantro leaves to make about 1/2 cup of loosely packed cilantro, then add it to the bowl with the other ingredients.
Add the minced garlic, lime juice, ground black pepper, and cumin to the bowl.
Gently mix all the ingredients together with a spoon until well combined.
Taste the salsa and adjust the lime juice or seasonings if needed, to suit your preference.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salsa for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature with your favorite chips or as a topping for dishes.
