Salsa del dos hermanas
Tonight was burger night. As I sliced up some tomatoes for the burgers, I noticed that I had quite a few tomatoes that needed to be used in rather quick fashion. What a better opportunity then this to get the girls in the kitchen with me? Well 2 out of 5 ain't bad. At least when it comes to kitchen help!
- 6 Tomatoes, diced (I used Roma)
- 1 Onion, diced
- 3 Cloves of garlic, diced
- 2 Anahiem Chiles, deviened and seeded, diced
- 2 Jalapeno's, deviened and seeded, diced
- 1 TBSP Olive oil
- 1 Lime, juiced
- 2 - 3 TBSP Chili Powder
- Salt to taste
- 4 - 5 cups of water
In a frying pan with olive oil, get the tomatoes, peppers, garlic, and onions to a really soft state. Add the salt, lime juice, and chili powder. Add 1/2 cup of water at a time and keep cooking it down. Add more spices and water as required. I probably used about four cups of water. The more you cook it down the more the flavors will marry and the better your salsa will be. Take your time, have a glass or two of wine and enjoy the aromas and experience.

Watch for a body building recipe for Huevos Rancheros tomorrow...er..Mañana!
The shots turned out well. Makes me want to reach over that bag of chips ...

Some day I'll get a proper flash or perhaps a small tripod like @ShawnFerry. My tripod is just too much work for a blogger to take a quick food shot. But I do love the Eye-Fi card and not have to worry about transfering pictures!
