Pico de Gallo (Authentic) image

This is an authentic recipe for Pico de Gallo from "Truly Mexican", a fabulous cookbook filled with authentic Mexican recipes. Use this recipe as a base and adjust to your taste - more or less spiciness, and even add olive oil if you want! This makes enough for 8 tacos (as a topping).

Ingredients

3 large tomatoes
1/3 cup cilantro/coriander leaves (, roughly chopped)
1/4 cup finely chopped white onion ((Note 1))
1 1/2 tbsp finely chopped jalapeño or serrano chilli ((adjust to taste))
1 - 2 tbsp lime juice ((adjust to taste))
1/2 tsp salt ((table salt) or 3/4 tsp kosher / sea salt flakes)

Steps:

Cut the tomatoes in half and use a teaspoon to scoop out the seeds and watery centre. Cut into 1cm / 1/3" dice.
Combine with remaining ingredients. Set aside for 5 to 20 minutes. Serve as a topping or side for things like tacos, burritos, enchiladas, quesadillas and any Mexican dish!
This can be made ahead up to 1 day. Leave out the lime juice and salt (otherwise the tomato juices will leech out), cover and refrigerate. Drain excess liquid, add lime juice and salt just before serving.

EX-GIRLFRIEND'S MOM'S SALSA FRESCA (PICO DE GALLO)

Ex-Girlfriend's Mom's Salsa Fresca (Pico de Gallo) image

My ex's mom had the best hand-chopped salsa fresca I have ever tasted back in college. Over the years, I have tweaked it to something my friends and family rave about. The trick for this salsa is marinating the onions and jalapenos in lime juice for about 5 minutes before adding the tomatoes and cilantro. There are two tricks to this recipe: 1. Hand-chop everything. It takes a while, but it is worth it. 2. The marinating is what makes this salsa special. Hope you enjoy.
