Step 1 Roast the onion on open flame
Firstly, char the onion on the gas flame. Turn it around on the flame till all of its skin is blistered and black (but not burnt). Remove it from the gas flame and let it cool for 10-15 minutes. Then peel it. This process gives a lovely smokey flavour to the side dish.

Step 2 Mix & mash the onion, tomatoes and spices
Finely chop the onions, tomatoes and coriander leaves. Mix the onions, tomatoes, chillies and coriander together. Mash them slightly to make a semi-paste. Add lemon, salt and black pepper as per taste. Let the salsa rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips :
-
You can freeze the salsa and use it for up to 5 days.

If you are using chilli peppers that are particularly hot, chop them only after wearing kitchen gloves.
