This tomato salsa is really easy and quick to make but has an intense and pleasantly spicy flavour that is infinitely better (and cheaper!) than anything you can buy in a jar in a supermarket.
Ingredients
- 300g cherry tomatoes
- 40g spring onions (2)
- 15g red chilli (1)
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 7 minutes
Serves: 4-5
Method
- Remove the seeds and the pith from the chilli, remove the root from the spring onions. Then finely chop the chilli, finely slice the spring onion and quarter the cherry tomatoes.
- Put the oil into a frying pan over a medium heat and, when the oil is hot, put in the tomato and chilli.
- Cook the chilli and tomato for about 5 minutes, until they have become soft and pulpy.
- Stir in the spring onion, cook it for 2 minutes then add the lemon juice and season it with salt & pepper.
- Serve, either hot or cold.
