Cooked - Salsa Roja Recipe - Mexican Red Table Sauce

2 pounds tomatoes (chopped)

1 small white onion (chopped)

2 jalapeno peppers (chopped – use Serrano peppers for a bit more heat!)

2 cloves garlic (chopped)

¼ cup chopped cilantro

Juice from half a lime

2 tablespoons olive oil

¼ teaspoon cumin ((optional, not traditional, more Tex-Mex))

Salt to taste

Add tomatoes, onion, peppers, garlic, cilantro and lime juice to a food processor. Process until fairly smooth.
Heat a large pot to medium heat and add olive oil. Add the salsa and it will sear quickly.
Add cumin and bit of salt.
Bring to a quick boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer for 15-20 minutes.
Season with salt if needed and stir.
Cool and refrigerate until ready to use.
Serve it up in a squeeze bottle like they do in Mexican restaurants for fun!
