    I made Pico earlier, the comments said I should roast it and blend it next, so I did.

    **Ingredients:**

    4 Medium sized tomatoes

    2 Jalepenos

    1/4 of a really big white onion

    A large handful of corriander

    2 tablespoons of lime juice

    1 teaspoon of Salt

    **Method:**

    Chop the tomatoes, jalapenos and onion in big chunks.

    Roast in a fry pan until they go soft and have some colour.

    Roughly chop the coriander.

    Add the softened vegetables, coriander, lime juice and salt to a blender.

    Blend until smooth but with a little bit of chunk left.

    **Outcome:**

    For me the tomato was the main flavour, a tiny bit of heat but overall very mild. Texture was soft and unoffensive.

    My wife said the coriander was the bigger flavour for her.

    **Final Judgement:**

    It is ok, but I preferred regular Pico to this.

    This isn’t pico, but the salsa looks good. You don’t always have to listen to people’s opinions here. Everything is to taste, so if you like it, continue doing it your way.

    Pico is always raw.

    This is a salsa recipe.

    It looks yummy though.

    It is call Pico de Gallo 🐓,and is very easy to make. Just cut tomato 🍅, onion 🧅, and jalapeños in small pieces add a little water a little white vinagre a little salt, chop coriander and you are done. What you did is more like salsa de jalapeño

    Pico is raw and never blended (not 100% on that second part). Salsa can be raw, cooked, or a combination of both and usually blended or roughly chopped in a food processor.

    Looks good.

    As others have said, this is not pico de gallo but a roasted salsa (don’t be afraid to get some good charring). And thank you for adding more than two sprigs of cilantro.

    You mean salsa. Which looks absolutely delicious.
