Fry in oil or grill (until slightly blackened) 4 roma tomatoes, 2-4 jalapeno or serrano chiles depending upon your desire for heat, and one clove of garlic. The garlic clove can be cooked in skin by grilling the clove with the vegetables or frying. The above cooked ingredients can be mashed by hand with a mortar/pestle or blended after salting to taste (probably 1tsp) and adding one crispy bacon. I small handful of cilantro is chopped and added to the salsa. You can chopped fresh or cooked onion depending on your taste (I prefer without). This is an EXCELLENT and easy mexican salsa (ranchera) from a Mexican.
