Salsa -Taqueria Style Red-

m0m's Note:

An authenic easy to make salsa based on a recipe from Taco Grande, a wonderful little restaurant in Katy, TX. You can control the heat by using more (or less) jalapenos.

• Total Time: 40 mins
• Prep Time: 30 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Serves: 1

Yield: 1.0 batch

• 15 tomatoes, chopped
• 3 tomatillos, chopped
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 3 -4 jalapenos, chopped
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 pinch ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon powder
• 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

Directions:

1. Boil the tomatoes, tomatillos, onions and jalapenos together over medium to low heat. Sparingly add a little water if you prefer a more liquid salsa, start with 3 or 4 tablespoons. It is easy to add more as it cooks.
2. Simmer and stir for about 30 minutes. This isn't an exact science. I have cooked it as long as an hour or as short a time as 15 minutes.
3. When finished cooking add a pinch of salt and black pepper, and the chicken bullion powder. Stir well.
4. Mix in a blender, then add cilantro.
5. Stir and serve with tortilla chips or texmex food!
