| 4 | Roma tomatoes - ripe, quartered | |
| 1/2 | Onion (medium) | |
| 3 | Garlic - peeled | |
| 1/2 | Green bell pepper - seeded (medium) | |
| 1/2 | Jalapeno - seeded | |
| 2 tablespoons | 30ml | Lemon juice - fresh |
| Cilantro - fresh | ||
| 1 teaspoon | 5ml | Salt |
| 1 teaspoon | 5ml | Black pepper - finely ground |
Place the metal chopping blade in your food processor. You will be using your "momentary" or "pulse" button on your food processor. Process the onion and the garlic cloves for 3-4 seconds until onion is finely chopped and mixed with the garlic. (Do not over-process.) Add remaining ingredients.
Whiz for no more than 3-4 seconds for delicious chunky salsa. (Be careful not to over-process or this will turn into a puree.) Serve immediately with crispy corn tortilla chips. Be prepared to make a second batch--it goes fast!
*Be careful when handling fresh jalapeno peppers. Wear latex gloves and do not allow your hands to come near your eyes. I use about one-third of a 3-inch long pepper in my salsa. You can adjust the amount to suit your taste. Do not use pickled jalapeno peppers.
NOTES : We love making this fresh salsa in our food processor and even more, we love eating it.
