Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large onions, finely chopped
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 red bell peppers
1 small red chile, deseeded and chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (400 g) can chopped tomatoes
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a saucepan and cook onions until tender.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the grill and place the peppers on a roasting pan underneath the grill.
  • Turn occasionally until their skins blister black.
  • Place in a bowl and cover with clingfilm or put in a paper bag.
  • Leave to sweat for ten minutes, then peel away the skin.
  • Discard the stalk and seeds and dice the flesh.
  • When the onions are tender, add the chilli pepper, red peppers and garlic to the pan.
  • Cook for a further 10 minutes.
  • Add the tomatoes to the pan, turn up the heat and boil for 10 minutes.
  • Taste and adjust with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your salsa rossa will be.
  • Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives them a smoky, caramelized taste.
  • Use a variety of peppers: Different types of peppers will give your salsa rossa different levels of heat and flavor. For a milder salsa, use sweet peppers like bell peppers or poblanos. For a spicier salsa, use hot peppers like cayenne peppers or habaneros.
  • Add other vegetables: You can add other vegetables to your salsa rossa, such as onions, garlic, carrots, or celery. This will give your salsa more texture and flavor.
  • Season to taste: Once you've made your salsa rossa, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or chili powder.

Conclusion:

Salsa rossa is a versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's great on pasta, pizza, fish, or chicken. You can also use it as a dipping sauce for chips or vegetables. With its smoky, caramelized flavor, salsa rossa is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
