Mayan Salsa Habanera
This salsa is amazing. The habaneros, when mixed in lime juice, lose some of their heat. The habanero is the chile of choice in Yucatan and surrounding areas. It is said to have mysterious healing powers. I believe it. I also know that it releases some serious endporphins. We can all use those right now. Preparation time is about 45 minutes and this will make a little over a pint.
Ingredients:
2 medium red onions, finely diced
6 large tomatoes, finely diced
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced 9654
5 habanero chiles, minced (remove seeds and membranes, using gloves)
juice of 2 limes
1 tbsp Orange juice or 1 tsp Controy (similar to Triple Sec)
salt to taste
Preparation:
Mix all ingredients together in bowl. Cover and refrigerate for up to three days. Serve with chips for dipping.
For nachos … layer tortilla chips on a plate. Cover with grated cheese. Microwave for 45 seconds to a minute. Remove and spoon salsa over the top. Serve immediately.
