El Torito Salsa (Version Of) image

After searching and searching, I found a recipe for their salsa. This is the one I find is the closest. I wanted to share it since I have not found a recipe for this on Recipezaar. I am open to all feedback to make it better or more like the original. I love chips and salsa so as long as its good I'll eat it :) For a more milder salsa, cut the jalapenos and serranos portions in half. To give credit where it is due: original recipe by : Norma Kelley, updated by me.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups tomatoes (finely diced)
1/4 cup yellow onion (finely chopped)
2 green onions (finely chopped)
1 tablespoon jalapeno, seeded and diced
2 serrano chilies
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
1/2 cup canned crushed tomatoes in puree

Steps:

  • Remove seeds and stems from jalapenos and serrano chilies.
  • Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, except the last two.
  • Put the last two in a blender/food processor and blend until chunky or to the consistency you prefer. If it is too thick add water a tablespoon at a time.
  • Add blended mixture to fresh ingredients and mix well.
  • Refrigerate until cold. The longer you refrigerate the better it will taste since the flavors will have time to marinate together.
