Strawberry and Peach Salsa
The hiatus is over! Admittedly,
in huge part to friends encouraging me to start posting again. Nothing is as
motivating as flattery it seems. Unfortunately, my camera is still broken, but
fortunately, in large part to me being unemployed. Yes, fortunately unemployed
as it means I am still in medical school. That means that photo quality for the
foreseeable future may not be up to the same standard as previously, but more importantly,
the recipes will be. These salsa photos were taken with my old, intact DSLR,
but rest assured, iPhone quality photography to follow.
A peach and strawberry salsa may not seem season
appropriate, but whilst I figure my life out aka, term starts, I have gone into
the archives. Perhaps this summery sauce will bring some colour into the grey
autumn. Shopping seasonally is overrated? No, its not, but alas if you are
feeling the cold weather blues, give this recipe a try.
Ingredients:
· 6 medium sized peaches
· 6 large strawberries
· a large handful of fresh
coriander
· juice of 1.5 limes
· 3-4 spring onions
(depending on size, light green and white parts only)
· salt and pepper to
taste
· juice of 1.5 limes
Preparation:
· Finely peal and then chop
the peaches. Add to a large bowl.
· Hull and finely chop the
strawberries. Add to the bowl of peaches.
· Finely chop the coriander
and spring onion; add to the bowl as well.
· Juice the lime and pour
over the salsa.
· Season with salt and
pepper, combine.
· Taste and make seasoning
adjustments if necessary.
· Enjoy with some pita chips
or corn tortillas. Alternatively, this salsa pairs perfectly with fish tacos
such as my salmon tacos featured in the picture below.
