Zubereitung von Chipotle Pepita Salsa
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Spread 1 cup of pumpkin seeds on a baking sheet and toast for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly browned and fragrant, shaking the pan halfway through.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- While pumpkin seeds cool, finely chop 1 large tomato (about 1 1/2 cups chopped), 1/2 medium red onion (about 1/2 cup chopped), 2 cloves garlic, and 1/2 cup packed fresh cilantro.
- In a blender, combine the chopped tomato, onion, garlic, cilantro, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, 1-2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (adjust to your spice preference), 1 tablespoon adobo sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, and 1/2 cup of the toasted pumpkin seeds.
- Blend until smooth, adding a little water if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Stir in the juice of 1 lime.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld. For best flavor, let the salsa sit for 2-4 hours or even overnight.
- Bring to room temperature for 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy with grilled fish, tacos, or tortilla chips!
