A very tasty salsa recipe!

Ingredients:

1 brown onion

750g ripe tomatoes, chopped into small chunks

1 green capsicum, chopped into small chunks

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1/2 bunch coriander, finely chopped

1 tbsp tomato paste

1-2 tbsp chilli paste (depending on how hot you like it)

1 tbsp chilli flakes

3-4 tbsp jalapeños

Salt and pepper to taste

Method:

1. I chop my onion and coriander stems in my little hand blender, so that I don't cry all over the place. It doesn't take long, 10-20 seconds, just long enough to chop everything up fairly small. Put the onions and coriander stems in a pan with the oil and cook for 5 minutes over a medium-high heat.

2. Add the capsicum, tomato paste, chilli paste and jalapeños, and stir so that everything is coated. Turn the heat down to medium heat and cook for 5 minutes.

3. Add the tomatoes, coriander leaves and chilli flakes. Stir so that everything is all mixed together, and cook over medium heat for 5-10 minutes, or until the tomatoes have cooked down to a chunky sauce. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

Et voilà!
