1/2 cup cilantro rough chop
1/4 cup lime juice
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Throw everything into the blender and pulse, once everything is able to blend together allow to blend until a smooth with small chunks.
Put a sauce pot on medium high heat and add in oil. When oil becomes hot add in tomato mixture, stir and allow to simmer on medium low heat for 30 minutes. Be sure to stir salsa while on the stove to prevent from burning.
