My Uncle's Salsa

Ingredients

• 1 can tomatoes
• 2 Serrano peppers, diced Be sure and either wear gloves or wash your hands immediately after chopping the peppers so you don't burn other parts of yourself.
• 1 cup of cilantro leaves
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup diced onion
• 2 tablespoons of chili powder
• Salt to taste
• A dash of sugar
• Juice from 1/2 lime

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the lime juice, sugar, salt and chili powder until the salt and sugar have disappeared into the liquid.
2. Add the onion, garlic, cilantro leaves and peppers, then stir so everything is evenly coated.
3. Spoon in the tomatoes and mix until the salsa comes together.
4. Taste it, then tweak the seasoning if it needs a little more balance.
5. Move the mixture into a blender or food processor and process until it looks the way you want it, whether chunky or smoother. An immersion blender works here too.
6. Serve with chips, or spoon it over tacos, burritos or other Mexican dishes.
