Makes 3 cups
Approximate preparation time: 10 minutes
Insert the large metal chopping blade into the large
work bowl of the Cuisinart
®
Food Processor. Put half of
the cilantro, half of the onion, garlic cloves, jalapeños,
1 teaspoon of salt and half the tomatoes into the work
bowl and pulse to chop to desired consistency, about 8
to10 quick pulses; repeat with the remaining half.
Combine the two batches in a large bowl and stir in the
lime juice. Taste and adjust seasoning accordingly.
For better consistency, drain each batch in a strainer
to remove excess liquid.
Serve with your favorite tortilla chips.
TIP: Salsa can be processed in one batch. However,
a better consistency is achieved by processing the
tomatoes in two batches.
