Salsas – sauces
The basic process for making a sauce is as follows:
1. Chop tomatoes and chilli.
2. Add onion, garlic and salt to taste.
3. Liquidise the ingredients, adding water as necessary to get the correct consistency.
4. Sieve the mixture to get out all the pips etc.
5. Fry the sauce on a low heat.
6. Use hot or cold.
You should use varying proportions of the ingredients to get different varieties of sauce. In Mexico there are many different types of chilli and both red tomatoes and green ones. Different varieties of tomato have different tastes too.
