Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

5-7 roma tomatoes
5-? serrano chiles
3-? jalapeno peppers
1/2 large onion,yellow
1-1/2 Tbsp salt
2 Tbsp oregano, dried
2 tsp garlic salt ( i have used fresh garlic and have found that the salt tastes better.)
1-3 tsp cumin..i love cumin so i put more.
1 handful fresh cilantro
note: all spices should be adjusted to your liking. i like salty and spicy hot.

Steps:

  • 1. place your tomatoes and all your peppers on a heavy comal,or a broiling pan . cook under high broil til tomatoe are charred and cooked through out. Peppers should be charred all over but NOT burned.this step takes me about 20 minutes checking a couple times to turn for even doneness .You might have to pull some out sooner than others with long tongs.
  • 2. Once cooked add all hot ingredients immediately into food processor or blender. NOTE: Do not remove the stem divot on the tomatoes,but use tongs and scissors to remove chili stems first.
  • 3. add all spices except fresh cilantro.
  • 4. pulse for 1 min. then add cilantro and RAW chopped onion and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Continue to pulse til desired consistency.
