Title: Tomato and Capsicum Salsa
Post by: kylie on November 19, 2011, 06:24:03 am
I made this today and won't need to buy salsa for nachos again! It's a combination/adaption from both the EDC tomato pasta sauce and Nico's quick salsa. First one I've kind of adapted for myself so open to suggestions to improve!

Tomato and Capsicum Salsa

3 tomatoes, quartered
1 1/2 red capsicum, quartered
1 small onion, halved
2 cloves garlic
1/2 red chilli (can add more or less to taste)
Few fresh basil leaves
1/2 tsp raw sugar
2 tbsp EVOO
salt and pepper to taste

Place onion, garlic, chilli and basil into T.M. bowl and chop for 4 seconds on speed 6.
Scrape down sides.
Add remaining ingredients and set dial to closed lid position, press Turbo button 3-4 times until desired consistency is achieved.
Cook for 20 minutes at Varoma Temperature on reverse, speed soft, with the steamer basket on top rather than the lid to allow steam to escape.
If not thick enough, extend cooking time to suit.

Makes about 350mls and is mild with the suggested amount of chilli.

I can see a nice pasta salad sauce in this one kylie, minus the sugar and extra EVOO  ;D

Two things from one recipe. Brilliant.
