This is a traditional Mexican Tomato Sauce that goes well with meats, fish, beans, rice, tacos and quesadillas. For added flavour I also roast the onion, garlic and tomatoes instead of frying. A simple Mexican sauce recipe that has so much more flavour than the usual shop brought.
Mexican Tomato Sauce
Tomato soup with an attitude. The jalapenos and serrano chillies ramp this recipe up.
