Note: For a milder salsa, remove seeds and veins from chiles. 1 bunch
scallions, trimmed and washed. 1/2 bunch of cilantro, coarsely chopped. 3
green serrano chiles, stems removed. Procedure: Place tomatoes and green
onions on a hot mesquite grill (over hot coals, not flames). Pile cilantro
on top, so that it does not touch the grill. Grill the vegetables 10-15
minutes or until vegetables are soft. Heat oil in skillet; add serrano
chiles and saute over medium heat until softened. Place chiles, tomatoes,
onions and cilantro in food processor fitted with metal blade and process
until coarsely ground. Combine remaining ingredients in small bowl; stir
until blended. Add to chile mixture and stir to blend. Makes about 3 cups.
