SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 lb ripe tomato, diced for PickleLover
3-5 garlic cloves, finely chopped for Iewe and her houseful of garlic lovers
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped for TxGriffLover, who is an acquired taste
1 small red onion, finely chopped for our savoury friend
1 small chipotle chile, finely chopped for French Bunny, who is sometimes hot & spicy
1 teaspoon adobo sauce, from canned chipotle chile for Heydarl, who likes to surprise with a kick
1/2-1 teaspoon sugar, for Bella14Ragazza, our sweet team member
lime juice, to taste for GaylaV, who provides a little pucker power
salt, to taste, for Iceland, as she is sure to find salt in Iceland

1 pinch cinnamon (optional)
1 pinch ground allspice (optional)
1 pinch ground cumin (optional)

Very good salsa! Great kick. I love the smokiness the chipolte gives. Definitely keeping this one.

Made as directed, using 4 cloves of garlic, but I had to use a 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes with garlic & onions instead of fresh tomato. I used a pretty large chipotle as I only had two left & both were very good sized. We loved the hot & spicy kick though!! Nice work, Angels! Made for ZWT5 - Ali Baba Babes

Oh my if you like a spicy and hot salsa then this one is for you. The chipotle chile in this recipe really makes this dish. Well done Hell's Kitchen Angels. Made for the DIning Daredevils team for ZWT5

Wow!! I'm so glad I decided to participate in this Salsa challenge, or I never would have tasted this. After reading the previous reviews, I left out the sugar (to lessen the sweetness) and gave the slightest pinch of the optional spices, which I think I will forgo next time. Wonderful, wonderful flavor and spice. I will be making this again (and it's easy too). Made for Salsa Challenge Part 2 by a Groovy GastroGnome for ZWT5.
