Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Roma tomatoes
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 1 medium Jalapeño pepper
- 1 large Lime
- 0.5 cup Sultanas (golden raisins)
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Dice the Roma tomatoes into small, even pieces and add them to a mixing bowl.
Finely chop the red onion and fresh cilantro, then add them to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Mince the garlic cloves and finely dice the jalapeño pepper (remove the seeds for less heat if desired). Add both to the tomato mixture.
Roughly chop the sultanas into smaller pieces and mix them into the bowl.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the salsa mixture. Use the entire lime for a bright and tangy flavor.
Add the ground cumin, salt, and olive oil to the mixture. Stir everything thoroughly to combine the flavors evenly.
Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning if needed by adding more salt or lime juice.
Cover and refrigerate the salsa for at least 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled with tortilla chips, tacos, or as a condiment for your favorite grilled meats or vegetables.
