How to Make Cilantro And Mint Salsa

  1. Combine 1 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves, ½ cup packed fresh mint leaves, ½ red onion (finely chopped), 1 jalapeño pepper (seeded and minced – adjust to your spice preference), 1 ripe tomato (diced), the juice of 2 limes, and ½ teaspoon salt in a food processor.
  2. Pulse the ingredients until you reach your desired consistency – a coarse chop or a smooth purée, depending on your preference.
  3. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add more lime juice for extra tartness, salt to taste, or a pinch of sugar to balance the acidity.
  4. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil for richness (optional).
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite tortilla chips, spicy snacks, or as a topping for grilled fish, chicken, or tacos. Enjoy!
