Yucatan Charred Tomato Mint Salsa (Mexico)

 

3 Roma tomatoes, pan-roasted until blistered, deeply browned, and soft

1 thick slice medium-sliced white onion, pan-roasted until brown and soft

1 medium-sized clove garlic, pan-roasted until brown and soft, then peeled

2 serrano chilies with seeds, roughly chopped

12 fresh cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped

3 large fresh mint leaves, finely chopped

1/4 teaspoon toasted and ground cumin

1/4 cup water

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

 

Chop together with a knife or food processor the tomatoes, onion, and garlic

until you have a coarsely textured salsa.

Add the chiles, cilantro, mint, cumin, water, and salt. Process briefly to

mix. This salsa should be chunky.
