Notes
- Adjust Spice: Modify the bird's eye chilies to match your spice preference; it's easier to add more heat later than it is to take any away!
- Knife skills: Ensure your vegetables are finely chopped. Especially the shallots should be as thin as possible so that the juices from the tomatoes and hot oil penetrate them a little and soften their bite.
- Lime Juice Tip: Add lime juice at the end so the hot oil can work it’s magic on the veggies with less liquid to contend with.
- Excess Liquid? If stored, tomatoes may release water. Drain before serving and adjust salt or lime juice if needed.
