Authentic Mexican salsa is easier to make at home than you might think! I love fresh and spicy salsa! I've been pretty close with Mexican families over the years, and I've learned how to make a lot of delicious Mexican food and techniques. And I like my chips baked rather than fried, cause then i'm allowed to eat more of them and not feel as guilty! =]
Ingredients (chips):
Corn tortillas (cut into triangles)
Cooking spray
Sea salt
Ingredients (salsa):
Ripe tomatoes - 4
Red Jalapenos - 2-4 (depending on how spicy you like it)
Yellow onion - one quarter of an onion
water
Sea salt
Salsa:
I start by washing the peppers and tomatoes and charring them on a hot griddle or kumal to give it that roasted flavor. Cut up all the ingredients into chunks and add to a blender. Salt as desired. Add about a quarter of a cup of water to the blender so that there's enough liquid to blend. Blend until all the ingredients are well combined. Add the salsa to a pot and cook on medium heat until most of the water is evaporated. Let cool before serving.
Chips:
Preheat oven to 350. Place tortilla triangles on a baking sheet coated in cooking spray. Spread them evenly, you don't want them overlapping. Add some more cooking spray on top and sprinkle on the sea salt. Put them in the oven for about 10-15 minutes, watching them closely so that they do not burn.
