Instructions
- Dry toast peanuts, pepitas, almonds in a skillet for 2 minutes then add sesame seeds and toast another minute.
- In another deep skillet, fry garlic several minutes in the vegetable oil until golden.
- Next add the chiles to the garlic and fry 1 minute on low. Add toasted nuts/seeds and fry another minute until chiles are slightly dark red. Stir constantly. Do not burn or salsa macha will be bitter.
- Pour into a container with the salt, vinegar and water then pulse using an immersion blender until desired consistency (or use a blender). Season to taste.
- Great served as a dipping salsa with tortilla chips, drizzled over grilled fish, chicken and steaks. Fantastic served with eggs, too.
