Ingredients

• 4 medium (about 2 cups diced) Roma tomatoes
• 0.5 medium (about 1/2 cup diced) red onion
• 1 small (seeds removed, minced) jalapeño pepper
• 0.25 cup (finely chopped) cilantro leaves
• 1 (juiced) lime
• 1 clove (minced) garlic
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Start by washing your Roma tomatoes, jalapeño pepper, and cilantro leaves thoroughly under cold running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 2

Dice the Roma tomatoes into small cubes and place them into a mixing bowl, ensuring to remove the core and any excess liquid.

Step 3

Finely dice half of a medium red onion and add it to the bowl with the diced tomatoes.

Step 4

Using a small knife, cut the jalapeño pepper in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Mince the jalapeño finely and add it to the tomato mixture. Be cautious with jalapeño and wash your hands thoroughly after handling.

Step 5

Finely chop the cilantro leaves and add them to the mixing bowl.

Step 6

Mince one clove of garlic and add it to the bowl.

Step 7

Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the tomato mixture, ensuring to catch any seeds.

Step 8

Add the ground cumin, sea salt, and black pepper to the bowl and stir all the ingredients together until well combined.

Step 9

Taste your salsa and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt or lime juice according to your preference.

Step 10

Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and let the salsa sit for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to meld together for the best taste.

Step 11

Stir the salsa once more before serving. Enjoy it fresh as a topping for grilled meats, as a dip with vegetable sticks, or a salad ingredient.
