Fresh Tomato Salsa

Looking for an easy and flavorful side dish that's perfect for parties and get-togethers? Look no further than fresh tomato salsa! This delicious salsa is not only tasty but also a great accompaniment to grilled chicken, fish, potato chips, tortilla chips (nachos), and masala papads.

To achieve the perfect taste and texture, it's important to use good quality fresh tomatoes. We recommend using Roma tomatoes, which have a meaty interior and very few seeds. Simply chop them in half horizontally and scoop out the seeds and gel with your fingers before chopping.

If you don't have a food processor, don't worry! You can also chop the ingredients by hand and then mix them together in a wide bowl until well combined. Once mixed, keep the salsa in the refrigerator for an hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

When ready to serve, simply pair your fresh tomato salsa with tortillas, chips, or masala papads for a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that's sure to impress. So why not give it a try and share your thoughts in the comments below?

Notes:

Instead of coriander leaves, you can also add fresh parsley leaves. You can also add a few tablespoons of drained and rinsed black beans and a few tablespoons of cooked corn kernels in order to get a colorful salsa.

If the chilies make the salsa too hot, add some more finely chopped tomatoes.
You can also add some fresh mango slices and pineapple slices to make mango salsa and pineapple salsa.

You can keep this fresh tomato salsa in the refrigerator for up to one day. But before you serve it, stir it well and just drain any excess liquid that has accumulated in the bowl.
