Mintsalsa Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the oil and allow to warm 1 to 2 minutes. Then add the red onions and warm for 1 minute. Next, add the jalapenos and again warm for 1 minute. Then add the orange juice and vinegar, allowing the liquids to reduce and only coat the bottom of the pan, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, stir in the jam and allow to warm for 2 minutes. Then remove from the heat and cool for 5 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, sambal, pineapple and sugar. Then add the watermelon, strawberries, kiwi, cilantro and mint. Toss together and finish with lemon juice mixture. Stir.
• Allow this to rest for 20 to 30 minutes, ensuring flavors have blended.

Steps:

• Combine the olive oil and lime juice in a bowl. Add the watermelon, mint and jalapenos and toss with the lime juice and olive oil mixture. Season with salt and eat with your favorite chips.

Steps:

• Combine tomatoes, red onion, yellow onion, green chilies, lime juice, cilantro, garlic, cumin, and salt in a food processor. Pulse processor until mixture is combined, yet remains chunky. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine apple, bell pepper and onion. In a separate small bowl, whisk together lime juice, honey, mint, jalapeno or serrano pepper, and salt. Add to apple mixture and toss to combine thoroughly. Refrigerate a bit before serving; this is best nice and chilled.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the oil, garlic and seasonings. Rub over lamb. Place in a roasting pan; cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. In a bowl, combine the salsa ingredients; cover and refrigerate until serving., Bake lamb, uncovered, at 425° until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), 20-30 minutes. Cover loosely with foil and let stand for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve with mint salsa.

Steps:

• Cut the mango into 1/4-inch dice and place in a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and fold together with a rubber spatula. Refrigerate, covered, for up to 3 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Halve the tomatoes and scatter over a large plate. Finely chop the red onion and tear up the mint leaves. Throw the onion and mint over the tomatoes. Can be kept, covered, 3-4 hours ahead. Just before serving, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, season with salt and ground black pepper and finely grate a little lemon zest over the top.

Steps:

• Wash strawberries, cut off tops and cut up berries.
• Place berries in a bowl along with strawberry puree and lime juice.
• Toss to coat, cover and refrigerate.
• Before serving sprinkle the mint on top.

Steps:

• Heat a dry "comal" or flat iron griddle over moderately low heat until hot and pan-roast tomatoes, onion, and garlic, turning them occasionally to ensure even roasting, until brown and soft throughout, about 15 minutes. Discard tomato stems and garlic skin.
• Chop tomatoes, onion and garlic coarse and in a bowl stir together with remaining ingredients. (Salsa should be chunky.) Salsa may be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered.
