Fiery Fruit And Peanut Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a medium Dutch oven or other heavy pot over high. Add onion, garlic, and chiles. Reduce heat to maintain a low simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent, chiles are blistered, and garlic is golden around the edges, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a blender or food processor and let cool 10 minutes.
• Add peanut butter, bouillon, and ½ tsp. salt to blender and purée. Remove small inset lid from top and, with the machine on the lowest setting, slowly pour in half the cooking oil (1 cup). Blend until salsa is velvety and emulsified. (Discard remaining oil or strain and reserve for another use, such as frying eggs or cooking the mushrooms for these tacos). Taste salsa and season with more salt if needed.
• Transfer to a small bowl and top with peanuts just before serving.
• Do ahead: Salsa (without peanut topping) can be made 2 weeks ahead. Cover and chill.

Steps:

• Heat the oil over medium heat in a 12-inch skillet until it is very hot but not smoking. Add the peanuts and garlic, then cook for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly. The peanuts should just begin to turn color. Be careful to not let them scorch, which can happen quickly.
• Add the sesame seeds and chiles, and continue to stir and fry for a minute or until the chiles are lightly toasted.
• Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the contents, including all of the oil, to a food processor or blender. Add the salt, sugar and vinegar, and blend until almost smooth. (The salsa should be uniform but have a little texture to it.)
• Pour into a container and let cool. Refrigerate the salsa if you are not using it the day you make it.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Put the peanuts on a cookie sheet and toast in the oven until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Combine the garlic, brown sugar, fish sauce, grated lime rind, lime juice and coriander in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add the peanuts, honeydew, cantaloupe and parsley. Toss well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
