Red Tomato Salsa Recipe - Cooking Index
2 tablespoons | 30ml | Vegetable oil |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Onion - thinly sliced (medium) |
4 cups | 250g / 8.8oz | Diced canned Italian plum tomatoes |
1 cup | 237ml | Tomato juice |
2 | Garlic cloves - peeled | |
1 | Jalapeno chile, stemmed - seeded if desired (large) | |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Salt |
Heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over moderate heat. Cook the onions until soft, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a food processor fitted with the metal blade or a blender.
Add the remaining ingredients, except the salt and puree, in batches if you are using a blender, until smooth. Pass through a medium strainer, pressing with a spatula or wooden spoon to push through as much pulp as possible.
Pour into a saucepan, and add the salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook, uncovered, 20 minutes. Adjust the seasonings. Set aside to cool for table salsa or use warm for red rice or chilaquiles. Store in refrigerator 2 to 3 days or in the freezer for weeks.
This recipe yields about 1 1/2 quarts of salsa.
