Salsa Recipe Jamie Oliver

SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Peel the garlic and pick the herb leaves, then finely chop on a large board with the capers, gherkins and anchovies.
• Place in a bowl, add the mustard and vinegar, then slowly stir in the oil until you achieve the right consistency.
• Balance the flavours with black pepper, a bit of sea salt and maybe a little more vinegar.

FRESH SALSA - JAMIE OLIVER

Steps:

• Cut tomatoes roughly into bite sized pieces. Toss into a colander. Sprinkle liberally with kosher salt. Toss well and allow to drain 15 minutes.
• Transfer to a serving bowl. Add oregano, olive oil, vinegar, chili and garlic; toss well. Marinate 15 minutes.
• Roughly chop the tomatoes with the coriander. Stir in lemon juice. Serve with fish or chicken.

HOT SMOKED SALMON WITH AN AMAZING CHILE SALSA

Steps:

• Special equipment: wood shavings or chips
• Get your cookie tin and place a handful or 2 of wood shavings into the tin, followed by your rosemary and sage sprigs. Place your wire rack in the tin, so it sits about halfway down, or bend some chicken wire to fit. Carefully pierce the lid of the tin 5 or 6 times with a screwdriver.
• Most salmon fillets come around the same size and thickness, so their cooking times are similar. Sprinkle the salmon fillets with salt and rub with a drizzle of olive oil. Then lay them skin side down on top of the wire (this acts like a grill rack) and put the lid on the tin. Place it on the burner, over a medium heat, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes. After a couple of minutes it will start to smoke a bit.
• While the fish is cooking, mix all the salsa ingredients together - you can go as light or as heavy on the chiles as you like.
• When the fish is ready, turn the heat off and leave it to sit for 3 minutes before opening the tin. This will allow any residual smoke and heat to penetrate the fish. Lift the salmon fillets out and place onto individual serving plates. Spoon over some chille salsa and sprinkle with your whole cilantro leaves. Drizzle over some extra-virgin olive oil and serve with the lime halves and the rest of the salsa in a little bowl. Lovely with some new potatoes and a green salad for lunch.

CLASSIC TOMATO SALSA

Steps:

• Finely chop the tomatoes and coriander (stalks and all) and place into a large bowl.
• Peel and finely chop the onion, deseed and finely chop the chillies, then scrape into the bowl. Peel and finely grate in the garlic.
• Squeeze in the juice from 1 lime, add 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, and mix well. Season to taste with sea salt, black pepper and more lime juice, if needed.
• Serve straightaway or cover and set aside for a few hours to let all those flavours develop.

SWEET CHILI AND PEPPER SALSA

Steps:

• Grill the peppers whole, turning at intervals, until the skin is blackened. Place in a bowl while still hot and cover with plastic wrap. Leave them to steam (this makes it easier to remove the skin from the peppers). Skin, remove seeds and finely chop the peppers. Then add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Taste for seasoning. Leave for 1 hour to let the flavors develop. Check for seasoning before serving.;

GRILLED SWORDFISH, GREEN BEANS AND SPICY TOMATO SALSA

• Put the swordfish on a pre-heated grill (or ridged griddle), medium flame, and cook for 2-4 minutes on each side. Remove from heat.
• Lightly dress the beans and salad greens with the olive oil and lemon juice dressing.
• Place the swordfish on top of a pile of dressed greens.
