Mexican Salsa Recipe hotmexi
- 4 Roma tomatoes

- Place whole tomatoes, whole peppers, whole garlic clove, and bacon and oil/lard in a partially covered skillet at medium/high heat.
- Remove garlic clove when soft and bacon when done.
- Once the tomatoes and peppers are slightly browned/blackened in places remove them from the skillet and place them along with the garlic, bacon, salt, and a tablespoon of the cooking liquid in the skillet in a blender or molcajete.
- Blend until slightly chunky (add garlic, peppers, salt, liquid, and bacon first, then the tomatoes).
