List of Ingredients
SALSA
2 or 3 jalapeños, stemmed
3 fresh tomatoes or an 8-ounce can whole tomatoes
1 small clove garlic, peeled and mashed
1/2cup finely chopped onion
2 teaspoons canola oil
salt to taste
Roast jalapeños on a griddle or in a heavy skillet over medium heat until blistered on all sides. If using fresh tomatoes, roast them in a heavy skillet until cooked and blistered, 15 to 20 minutes. In a blender pulse jalapeños, tomatoes, and garlic; do not overpurée. Set aside. In a skillet sauté onion in the oil until translucent; add the puréed tomato mixture, and reduce over high heat for about 10 minutes. Add salt. Serve warm.Recipe
FLOUR TORTILLAS
Follow directions on WHITE WINGS flour tortilla mix for 8 tortillas.
TIPS: Use a lightly oiled heavy skillet or griddle. You don't absolutely have to knead the dough for 5 minutes; 1 minute will do. A tortilla is ready to turn when small bubbles begin to appear on the upper side; turn it twice more, cooking 20 to 30 seconds to a side. Keep the tortillas warm by wrapping them in a clean dish towel in a basket or another container.
