Ingredients
- 1 large Tomato
- 1 thin stalk Celery
- 1/4 Onion
- 1 Green pepper
- 1 clove Garlic (grated)
- 2 tsp Lemon juice
- 1 Cilantro (also known as coriander)
- 1 Seasoned salt or plain salt
- 1 Pepper
- 1 Tabasco (the green or red variety)
- 1/2 a pepper Red chili pepper or green chili peppers (or both)
Method
- Chop your tomatoes into cubes.
- Finely chop your onions, celery stalks, and bell peppers.
- Soak the chopped onions in a bowl of water.
- Finely chop your green chili peppers.
- Grate your garlic.
- Strain the chopped onion and remove any excess moisture with paper towels or similar.
- Combine all the ingredients together.
- Add Tabasco as desired.
- The flavors will settle in and become more delicious if you let your salsa sit for 30 minutes or so.
- Here's what I used this time.
- The bottled red and green chili peppers were purchased at an import store.
- It's better if you use fresh lemon juice, but I just used the store-bought kind since I didn't have any fresh lemons on hand.
- I couldn't find any fresh cilantro, so I used a freeze-dried version.
- If you don't have any cilantro, you can substitute it with chopped celery leaves.
