    Salsa Fresca Kicked up a few notches
    Ingredients;

    Same as Salsa Fresca basic and then add...

  • 1 additional Jalapeņo chili
  • 1 additional garlic clove
  • 1 Serrano chili
  • 1 Yellow chili
    •

          -Additional optional ingredients-

  • 1/2 cup peeled and diced cucumber
  • 1/2 cup finely sliced cabbage

    First you will toast over an open flame the chili's until the skin begins to peel.  Remove the skin, seeds and inner vein and chop very finely. If all you have is an electric oven you can stir fry the chili's in a little hot oil.

    Place all the ingredients into a non metallic bowl and mix together.  If the Salsa is too hot, add more tomatoes.  If you like it hotter, add another Jalapeņo.
