Hjemmelavet salsa - Opskrift på hjemmelavet tomatsalsa

Homemade salsa

An easy recipe for homemade tomato salsa, – rich, fresh and mildly spicy.
Homemade salsa is incredibly easy to make, and it is a must whenever you are cooking Mexican.
A good salsa does not need many ingredients, – and you probably have most of them in the kitchen already.
Homemade salsa goes beautifully with practically every Mexican dish, – and it is just as good with a bowl of tortilla chips as a light lunchtime snack.

Spicy salsa – Spicy tomato salsa
How spicy you want your salsa is entirely up to you, – so always start by tasting your jalapeños.
In my experience there is a huge difference in the heat of pickled jalapeños, so always taste before you add the full amount. Tastes differ too, so add as much or as little as you like.
Finally, you can season the salsa with Tabasco or another chilli sauce if you want it spicier.

Method

  • Drain the tomatoes thoroughly in a fine-mesh sieve. Stir with a spoon until all the liquid has drained off.
    *If you use chopped tomatoes, your salsa will be coarser. You can also use one tin of each, – it gives the tomato salsa a lovely texture.
  • Finely chop the red onion and jalapeños, and grate or crush the garlic.
    *Do yourself a favour and taste your jalapeños first, – there is a BIG difference in heat.
  • Tip the tomatoes into a bowl along with the red onion, jalapeños, garlic, spices, ketchup, lime juice and oil.
  • Stir the salsa well and season to taste with salt and pepper.
    *Add a dash of Tabasco or chilli sauce if you want a spicier salsa.

    Jeg håber at du for din egen og vores skyld vil afprøve salsa lavet af friske tomater – evt med friskhakket koriander og frisk finthakket chili og evt. limesaft. Denne type er særligt lækker og autentisk her i varmen om sommeren, og fx også virkelig velegnet til lidt salte fiskeretter.

    Hej, hvis man ikke kan finde polpa tomater, ville man så kunne bruge passata i stedet?

    • Hej Camilla

      Nej så skal du blot bruge hakkede tomater 🙂 Passata er for fin, så den vil ikke fungere 🙂

      Warm wishes, Dianna

    Super opskrift.
    Har dog ændret lidt på den:
    3 frisk tomater + 1 ds polpa
    1 frisk chili
    Friske koriander og bredbladet persille
    1 grøn peber fintskåret
    Og så varmer jeg det op på en pande i 10 min.

    Det er en fantastisk god salsa – det er sjældent jeg følger en opskrift slavisk – men det gjorde jeg her, bortset fra at jeg droppede ketschuppen, for det har jeg ikke i mit køkken. Og jeg havde nogle meget kræsne venner til middag, som alle syntes at den smagte supergodt. Især giver krydderiblandingen et virkelig godt pift til salsaen. Med tak og venlig hilsen Lotte.

    Kan man lave salsaen med friske tomater fremfor dåse? 🙂

  6. Kan man lave store mængder og hvordan kan den bedst opbevares?

    • Hej Joan

      Jeg plejer at opbevare den på køl i et skoldet glas, evt. skyllet i atamon også.
      Jeg har haft salsa stående i 1 måned hvor den stadig var lækker, – sørg blot for helt rent service hver gang der tages af den.

      Warm wishes, Dianna
