Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash the tomatoes and red hot chili peppers thoroughly.
- Peel the onion and garlic cloves.
- Dice the tomatoes into small, evenly-sized pieces. Place them in a mixing bowl.
- Finely chop the onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.
- Slice the red hot chili peppers. If you prefer less heat, you can remove the seeds before chopping. Add the chopped peppers to the bowl.
- Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the bowl with the other ingredients.
- Pour the 1/4 cup of olive oil over the chopped vegetables in the bowl.
- Stir all the ingredients together until well combined, ensuring that the olive oil is evenly distributed.
- Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You can add a pinch of salt, pepper, or a squeeze of lime juice to enhance the flavors.
- Transfer the coriander salsa to a serving dish.
- It is best served fresh, but you can refrigerate it for a short period if needed. Allow it to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving to bring out the flavors.
Tips:
- For a finer texture, you can pulse the ingredients in a food processor instead of chopping by hand.
- Adjust the number of chili peppers based on your spice preference. For a milder salsa, use only one pepper or remove the seeds.
- Allow the salsa to rest for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.
- For a tangy twist, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
- If you don’t have olive oil, substitute with another mild-flavored oil like avocado or sunflower oil.
Your coriander salsa is now ready to serve! This versatile condiment can be paired with anything from grilled meats and fish to tacos, nachos, or even as a tasty topping for your favorite salads. Store any leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to a week to enjoy its fresh flavors.
