Texas Green Salsa Recipe
Texas Green Salsa
Creamy with surprising sweetness and a nice body of heat
Using the work “salsa” here as a more general heading of sauce. But man, this one surprised me. It tastes creamy, sweet, and then has that body of heat behind it. It gets better with time, so try and make this at least the day ahead.
Ingredients
Equal parts:
jalapenos | halved
onions | cut into large chunks
water
a handful of garlic cloves | peeled
a pinch of salt
a solid glug of neutral oil
Instructions
Step One
In a large pan over medium heat saute the onions with a little oil until translucent.
Step Two
Add the jalapenos to the pan and then add water until the onions and peppers are covered. Bring to a simmer and cook until the peppers are just about tender.
