Fireman Bobs Roasted Spicy Salsa My Way Food

FIRE ROASTED SALSA

Steps:

• If you are grilling, get your grates hot and scrape them clean. Place your onions and tomatoes cut side down on the grill. Place the chiles and garlic cloves on the grill, too. If you are broiling, arrange everything on a baking sheet, cut side up.
• Let the onions and tomatoes grill a solid 5 minutes before trying to move them. You want significant blackening. Turn the garlic cloves as the peel blackens, and rotate the chiles so their skins blacken. Remove the garlic when several sides of the cloves have some char, when the skins of the chiles are well blackened, when both cut sides of the onion quarters are charred, and when the cut face of the tomatoes are well blackened. You will want to use a thin metal spatula to do this. If you are broiling, simply wait until you get good char on most of the vegetables.
• Put the chiles into a plastic bag to steam. Chop the onion roughly. Peel the garlic and if the cloves are large, chop into a few pieces. Remove the skins from the tomatoes. After 10 minutes or so, peel the chiles with the back of a butter knife, then open them up and scrape away their seeds. Chop them roughly.
• If you are grinding your salsa in a molcajete, add the salt, oregano and garlic and pound to a paste. Add the onion bit by bit, grinding and pounding all the way. Next comes the chiles, then the tomatoes. Finally, grind in the chopped herbs into the salsa. If you are not using a molcajete, simply put everything into a food processor and blitz it a few times. You want this salsa to have some texture. Add salt if you need it, and you are good to go.

• Enro Gay's Version for a Family Gathering with her Gravy...
• Enro Gay... " Hello, Bob... the meatballs were a huge success. I reduced the recipe by using 4 pounds meat (2 ground beef, 1 veal and 1 pork sausage) and used dry Italian bread crumbs in place of day-old bread (and adjusting other ingredient amounts to match). Since these were made for homemade meatball subs, I made them much smaller and cooked them a short time in the oven before transferring to my slow cooker. "
• " I did not use your "gravy" as outlined above, but used this instead: "
• Small onion, fine chopped Small green pepper, fine chopped 2 cloves garlic, fine chopped 3 Tbsp EVOO 6 ounce tomato paste 1/4 cup dry red wine 3/4 cup chicken broth 2-15 ounce cans tomato sauce 1 tsp dried oregano 3/4 tsp dried basil 1 tsp sugar Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
• Saute onion and green pepper in EVOO for a couple minutes, add the garlic and cook another minute. Then add the tomato paste and wine, stirring for another minute or so. Then add the chicken broth, tomato sauce and spices, stirring to combine. Bring to a boil, then simmer covered for about 3 hours... YUMMY!
• " I made it the night before, then warmed in up, transferred sauce to the slow cooker and added the meatballs to simmer on low until we got ready to eat. I will make the dinner size meatballs next time and serve to my hubby with spaghetti, a favorite of his. Thanks for a wonderful meatball recipe! "
• " Absolutely... feel free! Even though the sauce and meatballs were sealed up in my locking-lid slow cooker, my mother and I could smell this during our 1.5 hour trip to see my son... just about drove us crazy! :-) "
• " Ummm.. Thank You again... it DOES have that quality!!! Lol!!! " HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY!!!!!!!
