Recipe's preparation

    I have a love/hate relationship with salsa. Sometimes it's too sweet, too chunky, too spicy etc. And why is such a simple food rarely homemade and mostly purchased pre made, full of preservatives and additives?! Well, no longer will I be searching for the perfect salsa! I have an amazing recipe that is quick, simple and very tasty all made fresh in the Thermomix in a matter of minutes!


  1. Ingredients:


    1 small clove garlic


    4 green/spring onions quartered

    20g olive oil


    300g fresh tomatoes

    80g green or red pepper/capsicum

    Red or green chili pepper to taste (I usually put in 1/3 including seeds)

    25g fresh parsley

    1 tsp white wine vinegar

    Half a small lemon, juice only

    3/4 tsp salt

    Pepper to taste


    Method:


    Place garlic clove in TM bowl. 5 seconds, REVERSE, speed 4. REMOVE PEEL FROM TM BOWL.


    Add onion. Chop 5 seconds, speed 7.


    Add oil. Saute 2 minutes, 100°, speed 2. 


    Add remaining ingredients. Lock the TM bowl. Pulse 2-4 times on TURBO. (To preferred consistency)


    Scrape down TM bowl. Cook 10 minutes, VAROMA, speed 2.


    Enjoy! Will keep for 2 days in the fridge...but it's too yummy to last that long!


    Happy Thermomixing tmrc_emoticons.)

    After reading the other comments here I decided to leave the TM off the lid and used the simmering basket on top where I cook it for the last 10 minutes to help it thicken up a bit. Seemed to help quite a bit

    Today I made it for the second time. This time I substituted the parsley for coriander, I used reverse lowest speed for the cook time as I prefer a chunky Salsa for nachos. Again, the consistency very runny so I strained it (reserving the liquid for a soup), in future I will remove the tomato seeds to see if it changes the consistency.

    I love this recipe, its quick, easy and delicious! Thanks for sharing

    I used Garlic Oil and removed the Spring Onions to make it FODMAP friendly.


    You may gave the green tops of spring onions on FODMAPs. I will try it now adding a couple.

    I only blitzed it twice and it was a bit runny and minced up but I like a chunky salsa. Would probably just chop it in the TM next time Like others I used coriander and would use half the spring onions. THANKS!

    Lovely taste, I found it a little runny though, maybe have blitzed it a bit too much? Added more chilli and used corriander instead of parsley.

    A bit runny, may have been the fresh roma tomatoes that I used.  Next time I would put on reverse and slowest speed for the cooking part.  Note new TM will not be varoma but 120C.

    This is the first thing my husband had a go at and we absolutely loved it. We blitzed it a few extra times and turned it into pasta sauce/soup as well. REALLY yummy!

  • Great Salsa Thanks! I didn't

    Submitted by ccgardens on 10. August 2015 - 13:16.

    Great Salsa Thanks! I didn't have the red pepper or the lemon & it was still really good. If I ever don't have lemon again I'll double the vinegar just to make it a little more piquant. I imagine that it tastes even better the 2nd day, I'll have to wait to find out because we ate it all tonight tmrc_emoticons.)

    Perfect!!!

    Our family love a taco dinner to celebrate birthdays. I made this salsa tonight and it was a big hit!

    I added half an extra chilli, half parsley and half coriander in place of the 25g parsley, and 2 small tins of red kidney beans.

    Delicious!!

    I really liked this recipe but think next time I will add some chilli for a bit of bite and perhaps some chia seeds to thicken it up a little.  Really great recipe. Thanks Cooking 9

    Cheers
