Javier's Habanero Salsa





Rumor has it this recipe originated with the guys in the kitchen, who like a very spicy salsa and he now has this on the menu. It's definitely spicy. You'll love the beautiful orange color the Habanero give it.

5 medium tomatoes
1 - 1/2 lbs of tomatillos
6 Habanero peppers
1/2 medium white onion
1 dried guajilo pepper
1 bunch cilantro, approximately 1 cup
2 clove of garlic, chopped
2 tsp salt
1 oz corn oil

Boil tomatoes, tomatillos, Habanero peppers, onion and guajilo pepper until tomatillos change color. Drain water and discard. Put boiled ingredients in blender. Add cilantro, garlic and salt and blend until smooth. Pour into saucepan with corn oil. Bring to a light boil. Remove foam and serve warm. Serve with tortilla chips and some room temperature butter.

  1. This looks a bit different than the salsa that I bought at the Javier's in the Irvine Spectrum Center location. But I will try this recipe. Thank you!
