Roasted Salsa

from Green Chili Quesadillas with Roasted Salsa, the Week of September 28, 2014.
View the previous recipe for this meal.

This is just lovely as an enchilada sauce or on top of burritos. It is also perfect for the end of the tomato season when you harvest all of the tomatoes ready or not to keep them from getting hit by the frost. Same with the peppers, any color will do and sometimes at the end of the season a handful of green peppers remain.

Ingredients

  • 1 bell pepper, large or 2-3 small
  • 1 poblano peppers, or an anaheim pepper
  • 2 cups tomato, diced
  • 1 onion, finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon cumin, ground
  • ¼ cup cilantro, fresh, optional

Preparation Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375.

Roast the bell peppers and poblanos under your broiler or over a gas burner flame. Rotate periodically until they are blackened all over. Place the darkened peppers in a container with a lid. This will allow the peppers to continue to steam off the black skin.

Toss the tomatoes and onions on a baking sheet with the olive oil and salt. When the oven is ready, roast for 25-35 minutes until they are softened and caramelizing slightly. Add a splash of water if they appear to dry out.

Peel the peppers and finely dice. Toss them with the tomatoes, cumin, and cilantro (if using).

Add more salt to taste if desired.
