Roasted Habanero Salsa From Hell  
Makes: 2 cups  
1
¼
6
Tbsp virgin olive oil  
C virgin olive oil  
ripe plum tomatoes, halved  
Freshly ground black pepper  
0 habanero chile peppers  
1
¼
¼
C lime juice (about 2 limes)  
C chopped cilantro  
Combine tablespoon of olive oil and garlic and mix well.  
Rub tomato halves with this mixture, sprinkle with salt and freshly cracked  
pepper and roast in 500-degree oven until they begin to take on some serious  
color, about 15 to 20 minutes.  
Remove from oven, cool to room temperature and dice.  
Meanwhile, grill habanero peppers over a medium-hot fire until slightly colored,  
2
to 3 minutes.  
Remove peppers from fire and mince.  
In medium-size bowl, combine tomatoes, peppers, ¼ cup olive oil, lime juice and  
cilantro, mix well, and prepare for takeoff.  
This salsa will keep, covered and refrigerated, about 5 to 6 weeks, mainly because  
no mold or bacteria would dare to come near the stuff.
